A peace and solidarity pro-gram in the northeastern Indian state of Meghalaya has addressed pressing national issues while promoting unity, justice, and peace.
“From the targeted violence against Christians and tribals in Manipur to the relentless attacks on Church personnel and institutions and the disturbing normalization of hate speeches, our country is witnessing a wave of alarming events,” lamented Chri-stian Brother Sunil Britto, the main organizer of the program that was held June 10 at Nongpoh in the RiBhoi district of Meghalaya.
More than 300 people, including priests, brothers, nuns and lay people from Meghalaya and Assam attended the program organized by the RiBhoi unit of the Conference of Religious India (CRI). The program also included a silent rally, where participants displayed posters advocating peace, solidarity, and justice for all. The rally served as a powerful reminder of the urgent need for collective action and social change, Brother Britto said.
The event featured peace songs and dances by Nathalie Warjri, St. Stephen Convent Hostel girls, Claretian aspirants, and Salesian aspirants expressing the spirit of unity and harmony thro-ugh their performances.
