 WORD OF INTRODUCTION

RICHA SINGH, regular professor at Open University IGNOU in New Delhi (India) and
Deputy President at Institute for European Roma Studies and Research on Crimes
against Humanity and International Law

Honorable guests,
Ladies and Gentlemen, Dear colleagues, my
dear students,

The fact that we are here today at this

representative gathering, at our University
dedicated to marking April 8th - World Roma
Day, the day when we summarize the achieved
results concerning the situation and economic
development of the Roma, confirms that we have
decided this year to continually mark such very
important day for the Roma.

The wave of democratization that affected

Central and Southeastern Europe, as well as the
countries of the Southwestern Balkans, did not
go around all the mentioned parts of the
countries. I would remind you that in the
Prof. Dr. Richa Singh mentioned parts of the countries, the process of
social, economic and agriculture reform is under
way now. The Roma, as well as other citizens of
the aforementioned parts of Europe, rightly expect that the result of these reforms will be a
richer and better life for every citizen.

The Roma, as our brothers in the scattering, are for the first time in this century in a historical
situation, a truly historical situation in which their collective destiny is decided.

The priority task that comes before the new democratic authorities in Europe and other
continents, is to solve the accumulated basic living problems of the population, the necessity
of a quicker revival of the economy and its simultaneous transition in the spirit of European
trends, as well as the reconstruction of existing institutions in accordance with the democratic
principles of the rule of law. At the same time, I would like to point out that the Roma are
enthusiastically supporting the arrangement of the international position of the country which
they live in and its gradual inclusion in European integration.

We, in our great state of India, nurture and respect national and religious differences, we are
committed to respecting the human rights of all citizens, and eliminating all forms of
discrimination. You will agree that this is a good ambience or model for improving the
position of Roma in countries they live in, across Europe.
In line with such tradition and practice, as well as the Millennium Development Goals of the
United Nations, India will pay due attention to the Roma. Even more, because it is about one
of the most vulnerable layers of society.

Congratulations on April 8th - World Roma Day!

Thank you for your attention.

ACADEMICIAN PROF. DR. SHYAM SINGH SASHI, President at Research

foundation, Rector at International Roma Cultural University in New Delhi (India), and
Honorable President at Institute for European Roma Studies and Research on Crimes
against Humanity and International Law

Honorable Chairman, dear guests,

Ladies and gentlemen, dear colleagues, my dear students,

At the very beginning of my presentation, I want to thank

Academician Prof. Dr
Shyam Singh Sashi
you for being here at such great number, in order to
celebrate April 8th - World Roma Day with our guests from
Serbia, Prof. Dr. Bajram Haliti, President of the Institute for
European Roma Studies and Research on Crimes against
Humanity and International Law, and Zlatomir Jovanovic,
President of the Roma Writers Association of the Republic
of Serbia.
The Roma are the Indian people, indigenous in Eastern and
Western Europe and in other parts of the world, with all the
features that make them a special national entity. Roma
have their own history, culture, religion, tradition, literature,
their language, their way of life, their nutrition, their
mentality, their national heritage, in short, the Roma have
their past, their present and their future, as well as other
people in Europe.

Today, in many Constitutions of the countries of Southeastern and Western Europe, the status
of a national minority has not been determined by the Roma, thereby depriving them of their
political and national rights that belong to them, sociologically speaking.

Roma have the right to solve their status in the countries of Southeastern and Western Europe
where they want and strive to maintain and promote good and friendly relations and
cooperation with the people of the existing states and their national institutions, as well as
with all other citizens.

In order to create conditions for their biological survival and overall development and
preservation of national identity, Roma people have the right to establish and develop their
national, cultural, religious, educational, scientific, economic, financial, political and other
institutions, associations, institutes and organizations, and their funding from the state budget.
Southeast Europe is a specific blend of different nations, cultures, religions and languages.
Throughout its entire history, it was a place of turbulent events and wars, which led to
unification and separation. Only in the twentieth century, the two Balkan, two World and
several local wars in recent times, confirm, in a well-known thesis, that "the Balkan produces
more history than it can handle."

The social position of Roma throughout Europe is even worse today than the position of the
rest of the population. According to the 1995 European Committee on Migration Report on
the Status of Roma in Europe: Roma are disadvantaged in almost every field: education,
employment, health, housing and participation in public life. "Also, the human rights of Roma
are exposed to permanent violations. Especially severe cases of violence against Roma by
extremist and pro-fascist groups, such as skinheads. On the other hand, state authorities,
especially in Southeast Europe, are often tolerant to violations of Roma rights. "

I want to inform you that today our Research Foundation will sign an Agreement on mutual
and technical cooperation with the Institute for European Roma Studies and Research on
Crimes against Humanity and International Law.

The goal of the new strategy programme of the Institute for European Roma Studies and
Research on Crimes against Humanity and International Law and the Research Foundation is
the inclusion of our people in the European Community in the fastest real time. We want
European structures and standards to become part of the Roma people, and that in the
countries where Roma live, their national identity and culture to be preserved through the
learning and cultivation of the mother tongue; to fight discrimination, xenophobia,
segregation, chauvinism and primitive nationalism; to provide assistance to elderly, disabled
and disadvantaged persons, as well as to assist women in the realization of human rights; we
should organize lectures, round table discussions, study tours in order to promote and inform
the public about effective approaches in resolving conflicts; to engage in the publication of
different works and professional literature; to conduct dialogue on the spot; to participate in
the development of the market economy and protection of private property; to fight for social
justice, social solidarity, which is a state guarantee, as well as for the protection of
marginalized groups. Ladies and gentlemen, that would be our strategy today at the global
level.

Congratulations on April 8th - World Roma Day!

Thank you for your attention.

PROF. DR. SANDEEP MARWAH (President of NOIDA Film Institute)

Honorable guests,
Ladies and Gentlemen, Dear colleagues, my dear
students,

Firstly, I want to congratulate all Roma on this

planet on April 8th - World Roma Day.

As a man who grew up with culture, I claim that

Prof. Dr. Sandeep Marwah
every nation on this planet has a material and
spiritual culture. Material culture encompasses
everything that is created by human work, such as
the processing of natural objects or the production
of new ones, and spiritual culture encompasses all
forms in which man's knowledge, ideas, values,
ideals and experiences are expressed. Culture also
constitutes all social customs, habits, norms, laws
and systems of communication and symbols, then
cultural habits and needs and, ultimately, cultural
institutions.

All of these constitutive elements or factors of culture are found in Roma as well. Given the
origin, the culture of Roma belongs to the Indian culture. Up to this day, the Roma have
preserved a number of elements that unambiguously speak of their cultural and ethnic origin
and identity.

Bearing in mind the fate of persecution of this nation world-wide, regardless of the level of
social and cultural development, order and ideology of the countries, it can be said that this
type of culture has proved to be very functional. This culture has suffered the influence of
many, incomparably more developed cultures, but its core has remained completely
preserved.

Roma culture affirms man and life values, among which happiness, love and freedom occupy
a central place.

Roma mimicry is a phenomenon that is characteristic not only for Roma but also for many
other nations. In their distant past, it is known that very prominent Roma have long been
declared and appropriated as members of a particular nation. This fate also followed our
people. Indeed, these are Roma writers, painters, composers, scientists who have entered the
history of other nations.

It is a phenomenon of the so-called ethnomimicry, characteristic for many other nations,

especially for the Roma who have always been persecuted and discriminated. It was a shame
to be Roma. Of course, the one who achieved something did not want to declare himself as a
Roma.
In contact with Roma intellectuals, I was introduced to facts such as Charlie Chaplin being an
actor of Roma origin, Rita Hayworth actresses of Roma origin, Ava Gardner actresses of
Roma origin, Yul Brynnner actor of Roma origin, Antonio Banderas actor of Roma origin. In
1956, in Brazil, a Roma Juscelino Kubitschek was President of Brazil, Django Reinhardt, a
Roma as well, a guitarist who laid the foundations of jazz music in Europe, etc.

As a director, I am interested in any kind of cooperation with Roma people.

Congratulations on April 8th - World Roma Day!

Thank you for your attention.

PROF. DR. BAJRAM HALITI, Chairman, President of the Institute for European
Roma Studies and Research on Crimes against Humanity and International Law and
Deputy Rector of International Roma Cultural University

Prof. Dr. Bajram Haliti
Honorable guests,
Ladies and Gentlemen, Hindu brothers and sisters,
my dear students,
Allow me, at the beginning of my presentation, to
express my sincere gratitude to all of you who
gathered today to mark April 8th - World Roma Day
at our University. I would especially like to thank the
Academician Prof. Dr. Shyam Singh Shashi, President
of the Research foundation and rector of the
International Roma Cultural University, and Prof. Dr.
Richa Singh, whose dedication to organizing today's
international marking of April 8th - World Roma Day
is worthy of great praise.

Given that today is the April 8th, World Roma Day, I am honored as President of the Institute
for European Roma Studies and Research on Crimes against Humanity and International Law,
to express immense satisfaction and to point out that this is a historic day for us Roma,
because for the first time, we mark this very important day together with our Hindu brothers.

I am obliged to present you brief history of the World Roma Day.

You know that at the initiative of Slobodan Berberski in 1971, the First World Roma
Congress was held from 4th to 8th April, in London. It should be noted that three important
decisions were made at this Congress:

1. Roma are Indian linguistic, national and cultural minority;

2. A Roma flag, consisting of blue and green colour, was established and adopted, with a
wheel in the middle made of 21 arms. The blue colour symbolizes the sky under which
the Roma live, the green colour symbolizes the ground on which the Roma dwell, and
the 21-armed wheel symbolizes the historical reminder that during the great Roma
king Pritviraj Chauhan, the Roma had a kingdom;
3. The anthem "Djelem, djelem" was adopted.
I am also obliged to introduce you to the decision of the Second World Roma Congress held
in Geneva in 1978, when the President of the International Roma Union, Jan Cibula, a dentist
by profession, addressed the Secretary General of the United Nations Kurt Waldheim in
writing and requested status B for the Roma to be established in the Economic and Social
Council (ECOSOC). The Roma received this status in an urgent procedure in 1979.

When I was elected the General Secretary of the International Roma Union at the Eighth
World Roma Congress in Zagreb in 2008, I addressed the United Nations requesting status A
to be established for us Roma in the ECOSOC, i.e. not to be the observers but active
participants in the creation of economic and social policies in the ECOSOC.

The Roma experienced an exodus from their homeland India, during the period from 8th to
12th century when they had the largest historical and political role in the north and
northwestern India, where 21 kingdoms were created, some in Rajasthan, Punjab, Haryana,
Delhi, Gujarat and Uttar Pradesh (Kannauj) were Romani.

Chronicles and texts published from

1300 to the present day show that
Europe is soaked with tears and
blood of Roma. Many were against
them: emperors and kings, parishes,
church dignitaries, courts and police,
theologians and priests, writers and
philosophers, in short, everyone
appeared before them (as Yugoslav
Nobel Prize winner Ivo Andrić
wrote) ''bloody beneath the skin, without having to neither repent nor to be ashamed. "

The Second World War brought the Roma the greatest trouble that history records on this
nation. Hitler regarded the existence of Roma as the greatest offense of racial ideals.
The gas chambers, processes, decrees, orders, persecutions, executions without evidence,
crimes for preventive and self-protection reasons, prisons, ghettos, banned zones, gas
chambers of Auschwitz and experimental scalpels of doctors from Auschwitz, Dachau and
Buchenwald, and other torture places had taken 3,500,000 Roma lives. In one word, the Roma
passed through Dante's hell from Vitos, through Jasi, to Auschwitz and Jasenovac.

Starting from the Holocaust in World War II, issues of humanity, democracy and the equal
value of all people should be raised.

Europe, therefore, shows a very controversial image: a beautiful, progressive, modern and
developed continent, but unable to secure the integration of its most excluded citizens - the
Roma - nor the respect for their fundamental human rights.

The reasons why the issue of the minority status of Roma has not been raised for a long time
have been multiple - firstly, their unfavorable social position caused them not having the
strength to organize themselves effectively at the international level and to put their question
on the agenda; secondly, the prevailing view was that the issue of Roma was a question of
their socialization and that their uniqueness, a specific way of life, culture and customs
represented nothing else but a social deviation that needed to be corrected, and not the value
that needed to be preserved; in the end, being very important in international relations, our
"homeland" of India should be concerned about us and shold represent our interests
internationally.

Since its foundation, the Institute for European Roma Studies and Research on Crimes against
Humanity and International Law has given itself the task of continuing this process and trying
to complete it with the international recognition of Roma as a national minority originating
from India.

I will remind you that in 1983 Indira Gandhi, the Prime Minister of India at that time, as the
patron of the Roma Culture Festival in Chandigarh (Punjab), recognized the Roma as "the
children of India" and declared their language, Romani, one of the "official languages of
India", which strengthened the faith. The Roma have entered the land of their homeland, and
some of these groups began to perceive them as their "great ancestors".

An interest in the Roma was shown, however, by her father Nehru, who visited a Roma
settlement in Belgrade during his stay in the former Yugoslavia. After this visit, Nehru's
secretary, Chaman Lal, wrote the book "Roma, the forgotten children of India".

Speaking to representatives of the International Roma Organization and many participants in

the Chandigarh Festival, Indira Gandhi said she came to the ceremony because she "feels
being related to the Roma people".

In recent times, there is an increasing number of countries that are beginning to truly take care
of the real and legal position of their diaspora. The reasons for this are different: the desire to
unite all the strengths of one nation, the awakening of national consciousness, the attempt to
use the diaspora for the needs of internal and external politics, as well as the economic
development of the country, etc. It is estimated that around 15 million Roma live outside the
borders of the Republic of India.

Today, at the threshold of the Third Millennium, the Roma need a strategy by the home
country of India in the domain of preserving and strengthening relations between the home
country and the diaspora, as well as the home state and Roma in the region. The main goal of
adopting this document would be to establish and preserve the continuity in preserving and
strengthening the relations of the home country and the diaspora, as well as the home country
and Roma in the region.

Our home country of India should insist that our diaspora members are well integrated in the
societies of the admission countries and are adequately represented in the institutions of the
system of those countries. Also, it should insist that the Roma occupy significant positions in
the economic, cultural, educational and other segments of life and work, and that this position
is followed by political representation in the institutions of the system at both central and local
levels of government.

I congratulate all Roma around the planet April 8th - World Roma Day!

Thank you for your attention.

ZLATOMIR JOVANOVIC, M.D, poet, writer and President of Roma Writers
Association of Republic of Sebia,

Estimated Colleagues,
Ladies and Gentlemen, Hindu brothers and
sisters, dear students,

First of all, I would like to thank you for this

reception, for coming at such number and for
organizing the celebration on the occasion of
April 8th - World Roma Day.

After you have gained insight into the historical

background and heritage of Roma, let me direct
you to the position of Roma in the grandiose
theory of globalization.

Namely, the position of Roma in postmodern

society and transcultural Europe, leaves great
Zlatomir Jovanović, consequences for Roma throughout Europe. The
Master of diplomacy very process of transition in the countries of the
former Warsaw Pact and Serbia, which was the
founder of the Non-Aligned Movement, separated the Roma from the original idea to unite
over the collective idea that India recognizes them as their people. The problem that arises at
the end of the 20th century leads to differentiation of the original idea of Roma, which doesn't
concord with the framework of the institutions of the UN and the Council of Europe. In order
to amortize the non-union of Roma in Europe through various programmes and budgetary
positions in the EU, a new model of inclusion of Roma financed from various funds is
introduced, with the basic aim of bringing Roma into the process of assimilation and loss of
individual and collective identity. The fundamental product of all this is the state of
animalization of existence in Roma.

The views of contemporary anthropologists and the findings of philosophical anthropology of

the 20th century, then systematic anthropology that illuminates human phenomena such as
"biological concepts" (upright walking, possession of hands, instincts, expressive possibilities,
games, etc.) and non-biological (work, speech skills, moral norms, spiritual abilities, freedom,
awareness of weather, socio-cultural forms of life, etc.), as well as various other issues and
problems, of which the most important is man and his world, existence and transcendence,
man and society, interaction and cooperation, etc. All these concepts, categories and terms
also apply to the Roma, both to their community and to the individual living in that
community. However, there are rare studies about Roma in which any of the above can be
found!

Therefore, it is necessary to say: "They are people." They are part of general, specific and
individual knowledge resulting from philosophical thinking, natural and socio-historical
research of various social groups (tribal, ethnic and national communities) or contemporary
research individuals in these communities.

However, we are witnessing that multicultural prejudices have led to the fact that Roma are
often not treated as part of mankind and, consequently, their community is compared to
communities of "indigenous people", who are settled in Australia, Asia and Africa. So, a
community that is at the lowest level of historical development.

They are forced to live in isolation for centuries, on the other side of "good and evil," exposed
to various prejudices, which led to the creation of ethnic and human distance towards them,
and vice versa, to the point of physical attacks and persecutions and sufferings, which
escalated into genocide during World War II. They remain subject of degradation to this day,
and thus an example of a legitimate animalization of existence, even its destruction. In other
words, they are treated as a lower "race" or descendants and representatives of the group that
the Nazis called "untermensh", which led to the fact their existence still being more fully
described in books in the domain of psychology of cruelty, than in studies which would
document and scientifically expose facts from their lives, history and culture.
Their life - being described in the everyday term "living like Gypsies" - became the paradigm
of life of an unworthy man of any other social group or national community.

"When hangings become man's everyday life," wrote a Russian writer Fyodor Dostoevsky
"then people get used to them." This is the case with Roma, who live in many, above all,
urban areas of European countries in indescribably miserable conditions, in "houses" of
cardboard boxes, plastic bags, at dumps, often forced to share their living space with animals,
even with rats that feed on parts of their children's bodies!

It is necessary that India, as Roma homeland, does the following:

- to make a decision in the Parliament on the recognition of Roma as its people;

- to establish a dialogue with educational institutions in India and the line ministry for
education in order to add Romani language to the 22 official languages in the educational
system of India;
- to treat the Roma as Indian diaspora in future, after the recognition by the Parliament of
India;
- to exchange cultural values of Roma from Europe with cultural, educational, scientific and
economic institutions of India via opening a Hindu-Romani cultural center with headquarters
in Belgrade;
- to hold a micro-investment fair every two years in Europe in order to promote potential
resources that could economically empower the Roma along with Indian investments;
- to establish schools and academies in the field of: art, education of science and IT
technology in Europe under the patronage of or co-financed by the Government of the
Republic of India;
- to have the Hindu-Romani Cultural Center, as an umbrella organization for the Roma in
Europe, leading the future dialogue with the Government of India on enhancing the situation
of Roma in diaspora;
- to organize joint events with Hindu-Romani Cultural Center and ARSP and ICCR on the
territory of EU and the Republic of India;
- to open an IT Academy in Belgrade for the education of Roma children, supported by
the Government of the Republic of India;
- to relate Roma economically with the Indian diaspora in the world and with Indian
investors ;
- to enable Roma from all over the world to have autonomy and the right to vote in elections
in India.
Happy April 8th - World Roma Day to all the Roma throughout the world!
PROF. DR. PUNITA SINGH

Estimated Colleagues,
Ladies and Gentlemen, Hindu brothers and
sisters, my dear students,

I have to tell you that I have traveled a lot in

European countries and had numerous contacts
with many Roma leaders and intellectuals. Roma
people told me that they feel like an Indian
diaspora, which they are not officially, because
they have not yet been recognized by our state of
India.

Our State of India should remind Member States

of the EU of the following:

- that active participation of Roma is crucial for

Prof. Dr. Punita Singh achieving their social inclusion;

- to keep in mind that the process of Roma inclusion contributes to social cohesion,
democratic stability and the acceptance of diversity;

- to unambiguously condemn racism, stigmatization and hate speech directed against Roma,
especially in public and political speech;

- to remind of the obligations of the

countries under all relevant legal instruments
of the
Council of Europe that they have signed, in
particular the European Convention on
Human
Rights and its Protocol, and, where
applicable, the European Social Charter and
the
Framework Convention for the Protection
of National Minorities and the European Charter for Regional and minority languages;
- to remind of their commitment to the principles of tolerance and anti-discrimination, as
stated in the Statute of European Commission against Racism and Intolerance (ECRI); and
- to draw up initiatives, activities and programmes already developed and implemented by the
member states in order to fulfill Roma inclusion.

The Republic of India, as home country, should be permanently interested in free

development of the Roma national community in each country, and that regardless of its
number, in practice, it enjoys all individual and collective rights guaranteed by international
conventions and bilateral international treaties.

Congratulations to all Roma on April 8th - World Roma Day!

Thank you for your attention.
