64th GANDHI MARTYRS' DAY OBSERVED 1,200 students marched for Peace & Communal Harmony and took the pledge to work for Peace & Integration
Volunteers wearing masks and carrying banners & play-cards with the slogans on Communal Harmony, “Hands not for hurting, but for help”, “India is Unity of all religions.” etc. were the main attractions of the peace rally. The purpose of the rally was to inculcate the spirit of peace and communal harmony as Gandhi had visualized amongst people from different walks of life which is the need of the hour to lead our country towards progress. This is more relevant and necessary in today’s atmosphere where hatred, disharmony, violence and intolerance are spreading at an alarming rate and moral values are on a decline. At Hutatma Chowk, an Oath was taken by 1,200 students with peace-loving citizens to oppose all forms of communalism, casteism, chauvinism; never to resort to violence and intolerance and to work for promoting harmony, goodwill and peace in the world.
