"It is a reality - however sad - that our worlds are run by politicians. We need to empower the people so that our politicians cannot ignore what the people truly desire." --Givind Nihalani - Indian Film maker

Peace in a Time of War

The border between the nuclear powers of Pakistan and India not only cuts across the land, but also fills its people's hearts with fear of war and armageddon. On Sept 27th, the BBC attempted to transcend that border with technology and music in a live concert for peace linking Karachi & Bombay. The live satellite link allowed Pakistan's legendary singer Abida Parveen to sing with her Indian counterpart Shubha Mudgal in Mumbai; giving voice and possibility to the people's desire for peace.
