Qutub Minar illuminates in remembrance of Rwanda Genocide of 1994

The Hindu
Monday, April 8, 2024 5:26 AM GMT

The Qutub Minar was lit up with the colours of the Rwandan national flag in solidarity with the people of the east-African nation in remembrance of the 100-day massacre that claimed the lives of 8,00,000 people in 1994

The Qutub Minar was lit up with the colours of the Rwandan national flag on April 7 in solidarity with the people of the east-African nation in remembrance of the 100-day massacre that claimed the lives of 8,00,000 people in 1994.

On the occasion, Secretary (Economic Relations) Dammu Ravi of the Ministry of External Affairs represented India at the 30th commemoration of the genocide in the Rwanda capital, Kigali.

Sharing a post on X, the official spokesperson of MEA, Randhir Jaiswal, wrote, “In solidarity with the people of Rwanda, India lit up the Qutub Minar today, marking the UN International Day of Reflection on the 1994 Genocide against the Tutsi in Rwanda.”

“Secy (ER) Dammu Ravi represented India at the 30th commemoration of the genocide today in Kigali,” the post read.

Rwanda marked 30 years of the genocide orchestrated by armed Hutu extremists, who tore apart the nation. The 1994 Rwanda Genocide (Kwibuka 30) is considered one of the bloodiest massacres of the 20th century.

According to Al Jazeera, Rwanda’s President Paul Kagame led the commemoration on Sunday by placing wreaths on the mass graves in the country’s capital, Kigali. The event was flanked by several foreign dignitaries, including the South African leaders, as well as dignitaries from Ethiopia.
