Dr. S.M. Ghazanfar, Moscow, USA It is a very good idea to celebrate India – Pakistan peace day. Such celebrations will definitely help to accelerate the peace process and dialogue between India and Pakistan to maintain the pressure of the people on their disputes and problems of poverty, unemployment, education, diseases, ignorance, and extremism. Dr. L.S. Tulankar, Nagpur, India It is a very good idea to celebrate India – Pakistan peace day. Such celebrations will definitely help to accelerate the peace process and dialogue between India and Pakistan to maintain the pressure of the people on their disputes and problems of poverty, unemployment, education, diseases, ignorance, and extremism. R. Alamsha, Dubai First, let me congratulate you for observing the India-Pakistan Peace Day and launching a web site. I have been looking for this kind of initiative for a long time. As I am Indian and my wife is Pakistani, I can understand how these innocent Indo-Pak couples are caught in between and go through the inexplicable ordeal. We are married for 15 years and living in Dubai. Now I want to get settled with my family back in my home town in Tamil Nadu. But, the Indian consulate is deliberately ignoring this issue and is not giving any clear guidelines. This must be the same with the Pakistani consulate also. I can understand that it is not possible to solve all the political problems in one go. I wish the respective foreign offices understand our difficulties and can provide a solution for these Indo-Pak couples to live peacefully in their country of choice, at least for the wife to settle in her husband's home country. I wish you good luck and wish you a great success on your noble endeavour. Sharafat Ali, Karachi, Pakistan
