[governance] visas for india?

[Sivasubramanian Muthusamy]

Hello All,

Parminder's mail to the MAG list would possibly be taken up at the MAG and
hopefully UN would act upon this problem. The Governance list archives are
public records and might also have been taken note of by the IGF task
committees of the Government of India. I am also sending a brief note to the
Government of India to take note of the VISA issues discussed in the thread
http://lists.cpsr.org/lists/arc/governance/2008-10/msg00108.html which is
publicly accessible.

Hope this helps.

Sivasubramanian Muthusamy
India.
