Official Bhopal Response to Dean, CEG, Anna University

Bhopal Supporters around the world have written to the Dean of the College of Engineering at Anna Universiry in Chennai over the past few weeks, calling on the University to dump Dow's sponsorship from their annual Guindy's Kurukshetra Techfest.
