Peoples' SAARC at Varanasi, January,2005

On 15 January 2005, human rights groups from India, Nepal, Bhutan, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka, PVCHR (India), INSEC (Nepal), People's Forum for Human Rights (Bhutan), Human Rights Commission of Pakistan, LOKOJ (Bangladesh) and Wiros Lokh Institute (Sri Lanka), met with an objective of a united South Asia, working for the common good, in Varanasi, India. This convention was named People's SAARC, leading to the formation of a South Asian People's Forum, with Lenin Raghuvanshi as its coordinator. Afghanistan was later added to this SAARC. This was indeed an excellent effort to build human rights mechanism in SARRC countries where the discourse of human rights is still in its nascent stage. Second of command of RAWA from Afghanistan participated. It is mostly funded by local people of #Kashi  and participants.
