Besides, several world religious leaders of different
faiths and organizations, human rights and peace
activists, people of different faiths and nations
visited the Peace Campaign stall, signed for the
Peace Campaign and wished Peace for Nepal.
Hundreds of people and religious leaders, social,
human rights and peace activists have shown their
grave concerns about the ongoing war in Nepal
and have wished the Nepali people Peace.
Nepal is a beautiful country in the eyes of foreigners
who have visited Nepal or who know about Nepal.
So, they have shown their love and sympathy to
the people of Nepal by writing peace messages,
prayers, pictures (arts) etc.
The Campaign has promoted Nepal in the International
community and raised awareness in the global level
about the ongoing violence and war in Nepal. As
most of the participants of the World Parliament
of Religions were unaware about the ongoing war
this Campaign informed and raised awareness to
several thousand religious and social leaders,
human rights and peace activists and general people
from around the globe about the ongoing war in
Nepal.
Several leaders and winners of various awards
have signed the peace message and prayers and
wished peace for Nepal and Nepali people. They
have signed in the name of their organization
as well while many others have signed personally.
They have thanked and congratulated me for the
initiatives and peace campaign and wished good
luck, success and words of support to me. They
have appreciated my passion and devotion for peace.
