Eminent jurists, judges, writers and intellectuals from several countries on Saturday adopted a Resolution for World Peace at the International Conference of Jurists & Writers for World Peace held in Bangkok, expressing grave concern over escalating regional tensions and the mounting loss of innocent civilian lives.

The conference concluded with a unanimous call for restraint, sustained diplomacy and strict adherence to international humanitarian norms, reaffirming the resolve of the global legal and literary community to work collectively towards a peaceful, just and harmonious world order.

Good to see Indian legal minds taking a global leadership role. But honestly, will Trump or Putin pay any heed? The appeal is noble, but the current global power dynamics are not in favor of such moral appeals. Hope I'm wrong.

As an Indian, I'm proud that our PM's influence is being sought alongside other major powers. It shows our growing stature. The focus on protecting civilians is the most important part. No political dispute is worth innocent lives.

While the sentiment is perfect, conferences and resolutions often feel like talking shops. What's the actionable plan? The article mentions "sustained diplomacy" – I hope they have a clear roadmap to actually engage these leaders and not just issue statements.

Thailand and Cambodia are both ASEAN members. Shouldn't the regional bloc be the first port of call for mediation? Involving global powers might complicate things further. Sometimes less is more.

"Law, dialogue and moral leadership must prevail" – powerful words from Dr. Aggarwala. In a world full of conflict, we need more such voices from the intellectual community. Hope this gets the traction it deserves. Peace is always the answer. ✌️
