Are there things that are traditionally said to one another on this day? Upon meeting other people does one say happy Gahndi Jayanti for example? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.94.176.22 (talk) 07:23, 2 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I propose merging International Day of Non-Violence into Gandhi Jayanti. I think that the Gandhi Jayanti is celebrated to mark birthday of Mahatma Gandhi and this day also celebrated with this reason and similarity is they are celebrated to mark birthday of Gandhi.UserABCXYZ (talk) 06:54, 25 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• Oppose: While they do share a lot of similarities, I think they should remain different pages. The International Day of Non-Violence portrays a universal respect and acknowledgement for Gandhi, whereas Ghandhi Jayanti is only in India. One observance is raising awareness for non-violence, while the other is celebrating an individual's birthday. The two days are written in law by different policymakers and should be represented as such. RandomHashTags (talk) 21:54, 16 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Closing, given the uncontested objection and no support. Klbrain (talk) 16:11, 3 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Support Either we stop discussing International Day of Non-Violence or we combine with that page. It's not clear what this page is about—is it about "International Day of Non-Violence" too? If not, we should stop discussing it so much here. DenverCoder9 (talk) 00:09, 3 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
