In the sad demise of Shri Laxmi Mall Singhvi, the nation - nay, the world - has not only lost a renowned scholar, distinguished diplomat, prominent parliamentarian and jurist but also a vociferous votary and voice of interfaith amity and universal peace.

We, associated with Universal Peace Federation, in general, and Universal Peace Federation-India, in particular, are grieved and bereaved at the sad loss of Shri L. M. Singhvi, UPF Global Peace Council member, who ably inspired our endeavor for universal peace. His words of wisdom and sagacity will continue to inspire us, and the humanity at large: "Peace is too important to be left to diplomats and soldiers alone. Peace will not come unless civil society is at the forefront of interfaith dialogue."

We extend our condolence to his bereaved family, and the extended global family - 'vasudhaiv kutumbakam'. We pray for his soul to rest in peace.
