We unconditionally shoulder our solidarity to “Religions for Peace youth call” and thus add all our brain and bran to:

1. Abolish nuclear weapons;
2. Stop the proliferation and misuse of conventional weapons;
3. Redirect 10 percent of military expenditure to achieve the UN Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) by 2015.

Mr. Rizwan Paul said, "We sign the petition to take action today to support ARMS DOWN as signatories of non-violence and peace activists. The campaign is one of our priority focuses.

We will continue with the campaign till it achieves its goals; THE PASSION and PEACE".
