Soni Razdan's peace petition post's ripple effect has swiftly agitated social media, much like a pebble thrown into a placid pond. Soni Razdan, Alia Bhatt's mother, sparked controversy by publishing an Instagram post endorsing the "India, Pakistan: Stop the Hostilities" petition amid escalating tensions between India and Pakistan. Activists from both countries initiated the petition, which denounces terrorism and violent extremism and demands for peace and an end to conflict. "Above all – PEACE ☮️ ✌️," Razdan captioned her photo, pointing followers to a Change.org petition that has amassed more than 4,000 signatures.
Indian social media users, however, reacted strongly to Razdan's action, with many doubting that such petitions would be successful in settling the dispute. Others discussed the practical implications of online petitions in international diplomacy, while others mockingly said that signing a petition was an easy substitute for using force. The petition itself emphasizes the significance of both countries' citizens holding their leaders responsible for fostering peace rather than conflict, notwithstanding the criticism.
One thing is evident as the online discussion rages on: despite its detractors, Soni Razdan's plea for peace is gaining traction. It might encourage people to use their position for the greater good if the discussion around this petition keeps growing and sparks additional discussions about nonviolent alternatives.
