H.H.Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar visited Nandigram to heal the wounds, and scars of the people following a protracted political feud in the area. After meeting hundreds of victims, H.H.Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar called for dialogs to end the conflict.
“As the conflict is highly politicized, political parties will not be able to resolve it. NGOs and spiritual organizations have to play the role of peacemakers. What is needed is conflict resolution through dialog,” he said.
H.H.Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar also offered to mediate between the opposing groups to end the ongoing clashes. H.H.Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar went around Nandigram and interacted with the victims in different localities. He traveled seven kilometers on foot to reach out to people in an area where there were no concrete roads.
