Peace Rally

Today we had a ‘peace rally’ to mark the World peace day. It basically had two purposes. The first and primary motive was to promote the annual cultural event which our college organizes every year, called as ‘Crescendo’. The theme for this year’s fest is ‘Heaven and Hell’..!

And as the name suggests, we’d to plan something related to good and bad, peace and chaos. And what better occasion could we get than the World Peace Day to spread the message..!

So our bright and creative students came up with an idea of this rally, which was made successful by almost 100 students actually taking part in it. Everybody was dressed in white and/or black, as per the theme. And as per our second purpose, which was to promote peace and harmony through the rally, we held candles and banners with peace messages, as a symbol of love and harmony. We started from Law College square and ended at Shankar Nagar square. But all of my students didn’t utter a single word out of frustration of walking that long!! It was truly a good spirit, which is very rare in students’ community, especially at such occasions. (and no, we'd not made it compulsory!!! )
Yes, they were aptly guided and assisted by the local police, which was a good sight!! They were clearing road for rally and even offering them all the help which they could.

And surprisingly, nobody shouted any slogans, not even the people on the road..! not out of the fear of cops, but out of curiosity AND the initiative and the messages which were distributed in the forms of pamphlets by our students.
It truly was a peace rally..and i’m glad to be a part of it. Just a small contribution to World Peace day from my side..!
