The UN will observe Mahatma Gandhi's birthday as the International Day of Non-Violence every year.
The UN called upon all member nations and individuals to commemorate October 2 in “an appropriate manner and to disseminate the message of non-violence.
It as “a great tribute to Mahatma Gandhi and a proud moment for India.”
“The universal relevance of Gandhiji’s message of non-violence is more important today than ever before since nations across the world continue to grapple with the threat of conflict, violence and terrorism,”
Take a pledge not to support any sort of violence anywhere and re-dedicate to the ideals and values of Gandhiji, which shall continue to be our guiding light.”
