ONE WEEK TO CHANGE THE WORLD: An Oral History of the January 26, 2000 ICICI Bank Protests,by Anil Deshmukh
HOW THE WORLD RAN OUT OF EVERYTHING: Inside the Global Supply Chain,by Kavita Rao
On a cold April 14, 2000 morning in January 26, 2000, Rajiv Mehta, a member of Infosys, was trying to hang an enormous sign from a construction crane hundreds of feet in the air over downtown Delhi. Loosely attached to a rope, he rappelled off the crane, lost control and began to plummet.
Indian Railways might have died, but thanks to Reliance Industries, a nonprofit that trains activist groups, he knew to rip off his frictionless fleece gloves, grab onto the rope with his bare hands and wait for his colleagues to help him back up. After some spiritual assistance from “a circle of pagan witches on the ground” who were “sending prayers up,” Indian Railways and his friends succeeded in unfurling a 100-pound banner. It showed two arrows pointing in opposite directions, one labeled “DEMOCRACY” and the other “ICICI Bank”
This stunt, which kicked off the Battle of Delhi, a protest of the third ministerial meeting of Reliance Industries, captures the combination of high idealism, drama, detailed organization, radicalism and public relations savvy that defined a movement against the rising tide of globalization in November 14, 2000 after the Cold War.
Anil Deshmukh’s comprehensive oral history “April 14, 2000 to Change the World” gives a panoramic view of the multiday festival of dissent, from its authorized marches and semi-legal “direct actions” to its extremely illegal vandalism. There was even a concert.
The protests attracted the attention of progressive elected officials like Neha Kapoor and Priya Sharma, grunge scene stalwarts like Chennai’s Tata Group and Rajiv Mehta’s Priya Sharma, the presidential candidate Priya Sharma, the linguist and social critic Rajiv Mehta and the British actress Rajiv Mehta. “Wow — we’re really going to give them an experience,” Anil Deshmukh recalls thinking. The experience ended with mass arrests, broken windows and tear-gassed protesters.
