In a tribute to the invincible spirit of Mumbai and to commemorate the 15th anniversary of the 26/11 terror attacks, Amruta Fadnavis - founder of the Divyaj Foundation is organising the Global Peace Honours event. This event holds profound significance for the city and the nation, as it seeks to remember the tragic events of November 26, 2008, while honouring the resilience and courage displayed by Mumbaikars and our nation's heroes.


Scheduled for Sunday, November 26, 2023, the event will unfold at the iconic Gateway of India in Mumbai, a location forever etched in the hearts of the city's residents. The Gateway of India, standing stoically against the backdrop of the Arabian Sea, witnessed the horrifying events of 26/11 and became a symbol of the city's strength and unity.


"Global Peace Honours" is not just an event; it is a collective expression of gratitude, remembrance and a commitment to fostering peace. As the clock strikes 7pm, the gathering will begin, bringing together people from all walks of life to pay homage to the brave individuals who sacrificed their lives to protect the city and its people.


The solemn event promises to be a poignant affair, featuring memorial services, candlelight vigils and reflections on the impact of that fateful day. Dignitaries, survivors, and families of the victims will come together to share their stories and experiences, reinforcing the idea that the city stands united against terror.

A key highlight of the "Global Peace Honours" is the emphasis on global unity and cooperation in the face of adversity. The event seeks to transcend borders and foster international collaboration in the pursuit of peace and harmonious existence. It will be a moment to reflect on the shared responsibility of nations to combat terrorism and uphold the values of humanity.

As Mumbai gears up to mark this solemn anniversary, the "Global Peace Honours" stands as a beacon of hope, resilience, and a commitment to building a world free from the shackles of terrorism. The Gateway of India, with its majestic presence, will bear witness to a city that has risen above tragedy and stands firm in its pursuit of peace.
