Ramesh Sharma — 2019-01-06T21:27:47Z

Ramesh Sharma describes in this conference the situation of the landless and the economic and institutional context of India. It details the claims of Ekta Parishad, his past actions and he evokes the preparation for the giant march planned between Delhi and Geneva for 2020.
