Chief Minister inaugurates offices of peace and non-violence cell in all districts


Chief Minister Shri Ashok Gehlot said that peace and non-violence are the basis of our culture. Mutual love, harmony, and brotherhood can be maintained in society only by peace and non-violence. He said that development is not possible in an atmosphere of unrest, violence, and tension. There are examples of many countries in the world where violence has posed a threat to the entire humanity. He said that the Father of the Nation, Mahatma Gandhi, fought a long struggle to get freedom for the country based on truth, peace, non-violence, and satyagraha. Shri Gehlot also mentioned the efforts of former Prime Minister, Late Rajiv Gandhi in establishing peace in the Indian subcontinent and said that he sacrificed his life for peace and development.

Shri Gehlot was addressing the inaugural function of the peace and non-violence cell offices in all the districts from his official residence through VC on Sunday. Paying tribute to former Prime Minister Late Rajiv Gandhi on his death anniversary, the chief minister said that the martyrdom of the late Rajiv Gandhi is observed as Anti-Terrorism Day. This inspires the people of the country to protect the country from all kinds of threats. On this occasion, he administered an oath to oppose violence and maintain mutual harmony.

The Chief Minister said that Rajasthan is the only state in the country where the Peace and Non-Violence Department has been set up. Along with this, the department has also trained the people in this regard at the block level. He said that Gandhi Museum being built in Jaipur will be a special museum of its kind, in which people will get an opportunity to know about the life of Mahatma Gandhi and his works. Meanwhile, the Chief Minister unveiled the statue made of panchayats (a mix of five metals) at the office of the district collector in Pali district.


The peace and Non-Violence Department is a unique initiative of the state government.

The Chief Minister said that the state government in 2022 set up this department. The objective of this department was to develop the spirit of peace and non-violence in villages and hamlets and in each state resident. He said that training camps based on the life of Mahatma Gandhi are organized through the department at the state, division, and district levels. Thousands of youth in remote villages, through these training camps, are imbibing the life ideals of Mahatma Gandhi along with the importance of peace and non-violence.


Rajasthan is leading in e-governance based on Rajiv Gandhi’s IT vision.

Shri Gehlot said that Rajiv Gandhi knew the importance of IT. He laid the strong foundation of IT in the country because today, the youth of our country have a unique identity in the field of IT in the entire world. He said that youth leader Rajiv Gandhi gave a new vision to the country, and based on that vision, today people of Rajasthan are getting full services of the public sector at a fast pace through e-governance. The State Government, through e-governance, has demonstrated better work efficiency, transparent management and good governance.

The Chief Minister said that Rajiv Gandhi is the ideal of our youth power. He became the Prime Minister at the age of 42 years when the country was passing through a crisis of terrorism and separatism. He said that much before the 21st century, Rajiv Gandhi envisioned taking our country ahead of other countries with a new vision. Today we are seeing it being realized. The Telecommunication Mission was made in the country based on the vision of Rajiv ji and on that basis, the Information and Technology revolution started in the country.

Smt Mrinal Pandey said that the Father of the Nation, Mahatma Gandhi, taught to counteract evil by peace and non-violence through public participation. Late Rajiv Gandhi giving 33% reservation to women in Panchayati Raj strengthened public participation in democracy. Peace and Non-Violence Department director Shri Manish Sharma said that programs are being carried out extensively by the directorate in all the areas of the state to publicize Gandhi Darshan. Gandhi Darshan training camps linked The general public with the Gandhian thoughts. Shri Satish Roy said the department has trained more than 5000 people in Gandhi Darshan. Prof. B.M. Sharma said setting up an ideal society with non-violence and brotherhood vested in Gandhian philosophy is possible.
