Among the many challenges that they shall face, they will have to play a major role in striving to create a gender just society and that is exactly what "Baatein Aman Ki ?as a movement is contributing to. The interactive session with young minds at Lancers International School raised awareness about the issues related to gender rights, constitutional values, the need for a peaceful, just and non-violent society and the importance of women being a very essential part of the decision making process. The session provided our students an excellent opportunity to share their perspective on issues related to gender rights across the country.? Said Mr. Y.K. Sindwani, Head, Lancers International School.

?Due to the rising cases of violence in the community, we formulated this campaign to promote peace and harmony through conversation.

We hope these rallies would help keeping the dialogs going about peace and harmony alive and our country will become peaceful.?
