Greetings to you dear Stephanian!
I send you this short note in troubled times. I read and watch every day with anguish about the loss of life and property in Manipur. It's been going on for quite some time now. You and your loved ones have been affected in ways big and small and the violence must stop.
I send you this note as a Stephanian, to urge you, each one of you, irrespective of your gender, your community, your religion, your position or your social status to come together for peace.
You, each one of you MUST take the lead and you must do it NOW.
You did not study in College to be mere spectators to something that history will blame each one of us for!
Now is when we must take corrective measures, show that common humanity that defines us all and work for peace and goodwill in Manipur.
As the Principal of your College I urge you, request you, to do your part and let your conscience be driven with love and mercy for all.
You are in positions, varied positions of power and influence, you must use these powers to make the positive difference that will bring peace to Manipur now.
Go Stephanian! Go! Let peace come now to Manipur because of you.
John Varghese
Principal
St. Stephen's College
