The evening started with remarks from Congressman Raja Krishanmoorthi, US States Representative. Congressman Krishnamoorthi thanked the Kashmiri Pandit community for all their contributions globally but also in the US. He said that the Kashmiri Pandit community is one of the most successful Indian American community.
Dr Surinder Kaul, Co-founder of GKPD and co-host of the evening, a Kashmiri Pandit himself, said "Kashmiri Pandits have always been the Ambassadors of peace and growth. The tenets of the community -universal brotherhood, benevolence, caring and sharing and pursuit of knowledge made them contribute towards upliftment of humankind in this civilized world. They never reciprocated violence with violence, hate with hate. This piece of their genocide and ethnic cleansing has remained hidden from the world and will create awareness about the impact of global terrorism on human lives."
