Know Your Neighbour or KYN, a Kolkata-based initiative that aims at promoting communal harmony in West Bengal, is holding a series of events this winter to promote the knowledge of history and celebrate India’s diversity.
These events will be held across Kolkata mostly in collaboration with colleges, to motivate the young and educate the young about the diversity that is India. The chain of events will begin with the ‘Diversity Utsav — Song, Dance & Discussion’, to be held on Sunday in association with four colleges.
“As polarisation increases in India today, it has become more important than ever to ensure that human rights are ensured for all. Through this programme, we want to spread the message that violation of human rights was not, is not, and never will be acceptable,” Sabir Ahamed, convenor of KYN, said.
