The Pak-India Peace Caravan titled ‘Aman Ke Badhte Qadam’ would leave from the shrine of Hazrat Abdullah Shah Ghazi Sunday (today) for Lahore to attend a joint meeting at the Wagah-Attari border on the eve of the Independence Day of Pakistan and India.
Peace activists and civil society members would participate in the meeting. This was stated by Pakistan Institute of Labour Education and Research Executive Director Karamat Ali and former Human Rights Commission of Pakistan co-chairperson Iqbal Haider at a joint press conference at Karachi Press Club on Saturday.
General Secretary, Pakistan Peace Coalition BM Kutty and General Secretary of PPC Karachi Adam Malik were also present on the occasion. **Karamat Ali said the peace caravan would also make donation appeals for flood victims and the collected amount would be handed over to the Edhi Foundation for distribution among the affectees. **
Talking about the peace caravan, Ali said like-minded friends in both India and Pakistan had made a number of initiatives to bring people of both the countries closer for lasting peace.
“We feel that if real peace and friendship has to be established and sustained between the two countries, the initiative will have to come from the people themselves,” he added. ppi

Re: Pak-India Peace Caravan leaves for Lahore today
Neither I grew up there but yet was raised by Parents who can speak Urdu well and are concerned about the identity of the roots. =]
Although nice thing maybe. I just hope there wont be any terrorist act when this caravan reach Pakistan. Its not always Taliban but someone else too.
In india there are like 9 gazilion languages and dialects of those languages :P (ok an exaggeration), i know my own native language but hindi/urdu i'm still learning, it's a beautiful language
maybe after 150 yrs relations will be better and peaceful like the european union, it doesn't hurt to hope :)

so hurray for the pak-india peace caravan. let’s dance :coolios:
