The Maldives’ Youth Alliance has asked all Maldivians to take a break from politics for two hours when it holds its first rally on Saturday.
This new group is asking participants in Saturday’s walk from the social centre to the carnival in Male’ to wear white to symbolise peace. The march will also include traditional features such as Bodu-beru.
It has been requested that the event is not politicised in any way – the event’s organisers would rather politics was not discussed at all, they claimed.
The Youth Alliance has stressed its non-aligned status, strongly rejecting any attempts to affiliate it with any political party.
“We hope that from 4-6pm on Saturday, people can think of other important things,” said a Youth Alliance representative.
