National Alliance of People's Movements explained

National Alliance of People's Movements is an alliance of alter-globalisation activist groups in India.[1] [2] It is an umbrella organisation for various civil society organisations and individuals working towards similar goals.

It has led protests on various issues opposing globalization, nuclear energy, and protests supporting electoral reforms.[3]

History

In the 1990s, with economic liberalisation in India and communal violence like the Babri Masjid demolition, groups opposed to globalization, communalism, and discrimination united to form the National Alliance of People's Movements in 1992. One of the founding members was Medha Patkar, of Narmada Bachao Andolan, who later also founded Ghar Bachao Ghar Banao Aandolan in 2004–5.[4]

Ideology

NAPM provides a forum for the coming together of a number of ideologies. In its own programmes, actions and conceptualisation of development perspectives on an emerging paradigm of sustainable development, equity, freedom, justice, and peace NAPM draws from the ideas of Mahatma Gandhi, B. R. Ambedkar, Karl Marx, Ram Manohar Lohia, Jyotirao Phule, Periyar Ramasami and others.[5]
