KATHMANDU, Sept 21: The International Day of Peace which is celebrated across the globe on September 21 every year is being observed in Nepal with diverse programs.


The UN General Assembly had announced September 21 as the international day of peace in 2002. This date was established by a resolution as a day of ceasefire and non-violence.

Nepal, too, has been marking the day since 2002 by organizing various activities. 


On the occasion today, various organizations, including Human Rights and Peace Society (HURPES) and The Story Kitchen (TSK) are hosting programs to assert global peace. 


It has been demanded that peace should begin from each individual for global peace and that all countries should enable the environment to that end.
