This was to <strong>for</strong>m part<strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> agenda <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Millennium Summit. As a prelude to <strong>the</strong> Millennium Summit(6th to 8th September 2000), <strong>the</strong> United Nations also organized a Millennium Forum<strong>of</strong> NGOs and Civil Society Organizations <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> world in which 1350 delegates fromall over <strong>the</strong> world from 1000 NGOs and Civil Society Organizations participated, <strong>the</strong>declaration <strong>of</strong> which is given below at serial number 2 (UN website linkhttp://www.un.org./millennium/declaration.htm). On 26th May 1999, <strong>the</strong>Millennium Forum had also, in its declaration, proclaimed that <strong>the</strong> <strong>for</strong>mation <strong>of</strong> anew political and economic order <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> world was highly desirable.However, both (i) <strong>the</strong> Resolution adopted by <strong>the</strong> 53rd UN General Assemblyand (ii) <strong>the</strong> Declaration <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> UN Millennium Forum <strong>of</strong> NGOs & Civil Societyorganizations i.e. "<strong>for</strong>mation <strong>of</strong> a new political and economic order <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> world"was twice deleted by <strong>the</strong> same Veto Power and was not even allowed to be included<strong>for</strong> consultation in <strong>the</strong> <strong>of</strong>ficial agenda <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Millennium Summit <strong>of</strong> <strong>World</strong> Leaderswhich was to be held from 6th to 8th September 2000. This short-sighted andunthoughtful action <strong>of</strong> a Veto Power hurt Mr Jagdish Gandhi badly and because <strong>of</strong>which Mr Gandhi decided to approach <strong>the</strong> world Judiciary, which he thinks is <strong>the</strong>last hope <strong>of</strong> humanity's survival and started organizing International Conferences<strong>of</strong> Chief Justices <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>World</strong> (<strong>World</strong> Judiciary Summits) on <strong>Article</strong> <strong>51</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong><strong>Constitution</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>India</strong> <strong>for</strong> Uniting <strong>the</strong> world <strong>for</strong> establishing rule <strong>of</strong> law in <strong>the</strong> world.General AssemblyA/53/948/Add.11United NationsA/53/948Distr.: General10 May 1999Original: EnglishFifty-third sessionAgenda item 30United Nations re<strong>for</strong>m: measures and proposalsThe Millennium Assembly <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> United Nations: Thematic framework <strong>for</strong><strong>the</strong> Millennium SummitReport <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Secretary-GeneralThe view was also repeatedly expressed that <strong>the</strong> <strong>the</strong>mes suggested were8.effectively interconnected, and that, <strong>the</strong>re<strong>for</strong>e, <strong>the</strong> dimension <strong>of</strong> a specific <strong>the</strong>meshould to be taken into consideration in <strong>the</strong> discussion <strong>of</strong> ano<strong>the</strong>r topic.

The world's population has just passedsix billion, and we are about to center a new millennium. In one sense, both <strong>the</strong>se things aresimply numbers. Yet both give us something to celebrate, and something to think about.Toge<strong>the</strong>r, <strong>the</strong>y mark <strong>the</strong> opening <strong>of</strong> a new chapter in human history – a chapter in which,more than ever be<strong>for</strong>e, we shall all share <strong>the</strong> same destiny. It is a moment to take stock: tolook back on what we have achieved, and where we have failed – and <strong>the</strong>n to look <strong>for</strong>ward,and think how we can make <strong>the</strong> new era better than <strong>the</strong> old.It is shocking to think that almost half <strong>of</strong> us – three billion out <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> six billion – areentering <strong>the</strong> new era in abject poverty, with less than two dollars a day, or less, to liveon. That is one thing we really must change.It is also shocking that people in so many places today are exposed to violence andbrutality. The twentieth century has been <strong>the</strong> most murderous in human history. We mustmake sure <strong>the</strong> twenty-first is more peaceful, and more humane.And it is worrying that <strong>the</strong> world's climate seems to be changing, in a way, which coulddestroy <strong>the</strong> homes and livelihood <strong>of</strong> millions. Controlling and managing this process may yetprove to be <strong>the</strong> biggest challenge <strong>of</strong> all.People all over <strong>the</strong> world look to <strong>the</strong> United Nations to protect <strong>the</strong>m – from hunger,disease and violence, and natural disasters – whenever <strong>the</strong> task seems too big <strong>for</strong> nations,or regions, to handle alone. But we at <strong>the</strong> United Nations can do nothing alone, ei<strong>the</strong>r. Ourstrength is <strong>the</strong> strength <strong>of</strong> our member states, when <strong>the</strong>y agree to act toge<strong>the</strong>r <strong>for</strong> <strong>the</strong>common good.Next year, leaders from all over <strong>the</strong> world will come to New York <strong>for</strong> <strong>the</strong> MillenniumSummit. They will consider <strong>the</strong> challenges ahead, and what <strong>the</strong> United Nations can do t<strong>of</strong>ace <strong>the</strong>m. Those leaders will be representing you, <strong>the</strong> peoples <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> United Nations. It isup to you to make sure that <strong>the</strong>y come here firmly resolved to take decisions which canlead to a better life <strong>for</strong> all <strong>of</strong> us, and <strong>for</strong> our children.In that spirit, it gives me great pleasure to extend to <strong>the</strong> <strong>World</strong> Peace Prayer Society and<strong>the</strong> City Montessori School <strong>of</strong> Lucknow my best wishes <strong>for</strong> a successful and memorableInternational Peace Festival. I am counting on you all – and I thank you all.Dr. K<strong>of</strong>i A. AnnanThe Secretary General, United NationsTo Whom It May Concern:This is to confirm that Jagdish Gandhi <strong>of</strong> City Montessori School has beeninvited to attend <strong>the</strong> Millennium Forum meeting scheduled <strong>for</strong> 22 to 26 May 2000.This meeting will be held at <strong>the</strong> United Nations Headquarters in New York.Sincerely yours,Kathleen UhierRegistrar andExecutive SecretaryMillennium Forum866 United Nations Plaza, Suite 120,New York 10017-1822 E-mail mng<strong>of</strong>@bic.orgTel. 212-803-2522 Fax 212-803-2561 www.millennium<strong>for</strong>um.orgRichard AmdurSecond OfficerDr K<strong>of</strong>i Annan in his message (given above) to Mr Gandhi said that <strong>the</strong> world's 3 biggestproblems were:1. Half <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> world's population is living in abject poverty, 2. The twentieth century had been<strong>the</strong> most murderous and brutal in human history & 3. The world's climate was irreversiblychanging threatening homes and livelihood <strong>of</strong> people In this regard, Dr K<strong>of</strong>i Annan fur<strong>the</strong>rsaid:1. The United Nations could do nothing alone. It's strength was <strong>the</strong> strength <strong>of</strong> its membercountries 2. It was up to us i.e. <strong>the</strong> people <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> United Nations to convince our leaders toattend <strong>the</strong> Millennium Summit <strong>of</strong> 2000 so that <strong>the</strong>y could take decisions that could lead to abetter life <strong>for</strong> all <strong>of</strong> us and our children.However, <strong>the</strong> leaders <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> nations <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> world attending <strong>the</strong> Millennium Summit were noteven given an opportunity to discuss or consult on any issue relating to <strong>the</strong> <strong>for</strong>mation <strong>of</strong> a "newinternational political and economic order <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> world" which was <strong>the</strong> General Consensus <strong>of</strong><strong>the</strong> 53rd Session <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> General Assembly dated 10th May 1999 and which was also <strong>the</strong>Declaration <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> UN Millennium Forum which was held from 22nd to 26th May 2000 because<strong>of</strong> malicious machinations <strong>of</strong> a Veto Power.28 May 2000UN ASSEMBLY HALL"Do not busy yourself in your own concerns or <strong>the</strong> concerns <strong>of</strong> your own countries alone. Let your thoughts befixed upon that which will rehabilitate <strong>the</strong> <strong>for</strong>tunes <strong>of</strong> mankind and sanctify <strong>the</strong> hearts and souls <strong>of</strong> man.""At <strong>the</strong> outset <strong>of</strong> every endeavour one must look to <strong>the</strong> end <strong>of</strong> it." – Abdul Baha16
