Suresh Kumar. At that time Shri. Kumar categorically stated that he was opposed to privatization of water, and also asserted that Karnataka Government would never allow commodification and privatization of drinking water. However, Mr. Kumar has later reinterpreted his commitment against water privatization on this blog, by claiming that the Campaign is confused about understanding the nature of privatization of water, and that “there is a distinct difference between privatization and private participation”.<br /><br />But facts speak otherwise. What emerged in the meeting with Mr. Kumar was that neither he as Minister of the State nor the BWSSB or KUIDFC or any of the other agencies of the State assisting the US Water Trade Mission, had at all been formally approached by the US Consul General or the US Commerce Ministry as per protocol and to seek permission for such a Trade Mission. Mr. Kumar read out an email that had been received only recently by BWSSB where the US Consul General merely intimated the agency of the impending Water Trade Missions, sought entry into various water facilities and meetings with various agencies and local official. If this is not evidence of the scant respect the US Government has demonstrated for a Minister and Government agencies, what is? <br /><br />Time now for Mr. Kumar to stand up for the people of the State, the Indian Constitution and not bend over backwards in support of the US Trade Mission that has insulted the position of a Cabinet Minister, and thus the State.ESGhttp://www.esgindia.orgnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3403433754391109248.post-88760759920171292662011-02-26T21:35:47.268+05:302011-02-26T21:35:47.268+05:30Dear Sureshji,
