I will be part of some panel discussions tomorrow (6 August).

The topic is “75वें हिरोशिमा दिवस पर वेब-चर्चा” and I will speak about the “Iran nuclear conflict and U.S. imperialism”. Achin Vanaik will speak about the situation in South Asia. This event is from 3 pm – 5 pm at https://meet.google.com/rgo-bytk-key. This meeting will largely be in Hindi.

  2. The second is organized by the India Peace Centre. Achin will be a panelist here as well, and we will also be joined by Vaishali Patil. The title is “No Nukes: No More Hiroshima”. This event is from 5 pm – 7 pm at https://zoom.us/j/7122556952?pwd=QjYvbFZVT3U3d3ZCOHRac1FlQUpSQT09 I think the language will be a mix of English and Hindi.
