Governments of India and Pakistan to exercise restraint, stop
hostilities, on the Kashmir front, and save our valuable resources for
the betterment of the people, specially the poor and the needy of both

appeal to the people of both the countries to build up a strong peace

countries. Let us follow the path of sanity and develop good neighbourly
