Preparatory efforts for the peace march from New Delhi to Multan have begun in earnest.

A preparatory meeting was held in Delhi on Oct. 10, 2004
at the residence of Nirmala Deshpandeji, which was attended by
Admiral L. Ramdas, Lalita Ramdas, Ramesh Bhai, Maruti, Gurmeet
Khanpuri, Talwinder Singh, Ramesh Yadav and Sandeep to discuss the
preparation of the India-Pakistan peace march being proposed for
next year between Delhi to Multan from 23rd March to 11th May.

It was decided to meet the Prime Minister around 30th Nov. to seek
his approval in priniciple for this peace march. A delegation
comprising of Admiral Ramdas, Nirmala Deshpandeji, Sandeep and
Karamat Ali (who may come for CNDP convention in Jaipur from 26-28
Nov.) was finalized for meeting the PM.

as many youth as possible for this peace march.
