Message of February 1981 to Mundialist
gathered in New Delhi :
The world is becoming more and more interdependent.
Developments in communication, problems of equitable
distribution of the world's natural resources and the
common dangers posed by the increase in conventional and
nuclear armaments demand that mankind must act as
one.
A just international order is an inescapable necessity
for man's survival. Such an order must rest on equal
respect for all nations as well as equal opportunity for
each people to develop to its fullest potential.
Enlightened representatives of nations must develop
international conventions which will make it possible for
all sovereign nations to cede some of their powers out of
their free will to international institutions in the
confidence that their dignity and just interests will
never be compromised.
My good wishes for the fourth session of the World
Constitution and Parliament Association New Delhi.
Indira Gandhi
Prime Minister
