What we would like to communicate; 
Culture
of Peace; Wars and Children; Children are the first victims of war
followed by women. There are 134 million working children in India.
Every tenth Indian is a working child. Everything we use in our daily
lives are products of child labour The narrative follows a chronology of
events before, during and after the war bringing it to the contemporary
world of nuclear wars and offer the Kempo Kyujo as the solution. Kempo
Kyujo is the Article 9 of the Japanese constitution which prohibits the
country from forming an army, getting armed with nuclear weapons and
joining wars. While there are 30 000 Nuclear war weapons in 10 countries
of the world Twenty five countries like Costa Rica have banned their
armies They have almost 100% literacy rate instead. We wish to spread
the idea of Kempo Kyujo as well. - Mother
Nature; the story has a direct link to zoos and the protection of wild
life in the wild and zoological gardens. It is very compelling and seeks
the urgent sensitization of the world on the very delicate balance of
life and the saving of endangered species The Tiger foremost, now
reduced to 1114 in India!

Awareness; The play will raise awareness about peace, child rights and
environmental issues through fun learning process among young people and
the public. They will pass on the values they will gain through the
production to the next generation.
