Activists of the 'Universal Peace Foundation' are distributing "Gandhigiri" pamphlets, which contains the messages of Mahatma Gandhi on values like being trustworthy in relationships and on the institution of wedding.

The pamphlet urges people to take a pledge that they will keep away from illicit relationships before or after marriage and will be faithful to their partner throughout their life.

It also contains passages from sacred texts of various religions like Hinduism, Christianity, Islam, Jainism, Zorastrianism and Ba'ahai.

The campaign was designed under the guidance of eminent jurist L M Singhvi, who died yesterday.

"We are trying to reach out to the masses using the Mahatma's teachings to fight against HIV/AIDS," David McLackLand, a Britisher associated with the campaign, told PTI.

MacLackland, also a consultant with a charitable trust 'Inter-religious and International Federation for World Peace', said they chose the principles of the Mahatma because his ideals have an universal appeal.
