Mother’s Union Urges Public to Avoid Violence and Maintain Calm
Tura, March 11: The A•chik Baptist Dal•gipa Krima No. IV, a Garo Baptist association based in Tura, has called upon residents across the Garo Hills region to participate in a special prayer service aimed at restoring peace and harmony amid the current situation in the area.
In a statement issued recently, the association urged people to come together in prayer during this critical period, stressing the need for unity, compassion, and mutual understanding among communities.
According to the organisation, the main objective of the prayer service is to guide people towards the right path, eliminate hatred, and promote communal harmony across the region. The association also appealed to the public to pray for those affected by the recent unrest, as well as for individuals and authorities working tirelessly to restore peace and stability.
The church body emphasized that collective prayer and solidarity among citizens can play a crucial role in healing divisions and strengthening the spirit of brotherhood in Garo Hills. Leaders of the association expressed hope that through prayer and cooperation, peace and normalcy would soon return to the region.
Meanwhile, the Mother’s Union, Tura, has also appealed to the public to refrain from engaging in unlawful activities such as vandalism and other antisocial acts, stating that such actions will not lead to any positive outcome.
The union further urged people to remain calm and work collectively towards restoring peace, noting that the elections to the Garo Hills Autonomous District Council (GHADC) have been postponed. This, it said, provides sufficient time to follow due process and make necessary amendments regarding the rules governing eligibility to contest the elections.
“Violence will not help achieve anything,” the union stated, adding that as mothers they wish to see lasting peace in Garo Hills and hope for a future where their children can prosper.
The organisation expressed hope that the public will heed their appeal and work together to maintain peace and harmony in the region.
