Why Peoples’ Movements are Fighting Vedanta: Vedanta plc is a London listed FTSE100 company which has brought death and destruction to thousands. It is owned by billionaireAnil Agarwal and his family through companies in various tax havens. It has been consistentlyfought by people’s movements but it is being helped by the British government to evolve intoa multi-headed monster and spread across India and round the world, diversifying into iron inGoa, Karnataka and Liberia, Zinc in Rajasthan, Namibia, South Africa and Ireland, copper inZambia and most recently oil in the ecologically fragile Mannar region in Sri Lanka.
