Karnataka Assembly Supports Global Peace Declaration
The Karnataka Legislative Assembly in India has agreed to support a global plan for peace called the Declaration of Peace and Cessation of War (DPCW).
This plan, created by an organization called HWPL, aims to create peace by preventing conflicts, disarming nations, and teaching everyone about peace.
The Assembly believes that peace starts with local communities working together and is not just the job of countries.
They plan to work with HWPL to teach peace, protect the environment, and celebrate different cultures.
The Assembly also wants to create 'Peace Villages' and 'Peace Cities' to make peace a lasting legacy for future generations.

The DPCW provides an international legal framework incorporating principles of conflict prevention and disarmament.

The state government will integrate DPCW principles into local policies.
