Borders may keep us apart, but they cannot separate the bond we share
(Web Desk) - Indian and Pakistani Miss Grand International contestants shared a heartfelt bond during a beauty pageant competition--Miss Grand International 2024-- held in Bangkok last week.
Punjab’s Jalandhar Rachel Gupta, who won the competition, wrote a heartfelt note to her "Punjabi sister" Roma, expressing her love towards her.
"Borders may keep us apart, but they cannot separate the bond we share," wrote India's Rachel Gupta.
In a post on Instagram, Rachel wrote: “Roma, my heart swells with pride when I think of your courage and grace. Competing alongside you has been a blessing, like finding home away from home.
Your kindness, your hard work, and your strength have been an example to all and I am so proud of everything you’ve overcome on your own.
Borders may keep us apart, but they cannot separate the bond we share. We are born of the same blood, and you will always have a friend in me, and a home in India.
Keep your head high, Roma, because you are not alone. We are stronger together, because what divides us is not bigger than what unites us!”
India shares an intricate relationship with Pakistan, but the love between people of both the countries transcends all boundaries.
Miss Grand International, a centre of creativity and entertainment, is a global beauty contest that aims to prevent violence and war by advancing human knowledge and understanding.
The winner is given a “Golden Crown” which is crafted from gold and brass, decorated with diamonds and emeralds and the designation is changed every three years.
