TWPM had prepared a scroll of honour for the Dalai Lama, Malala Yousafzai, Anna Hazare, Dr APJ Abdul Kalam and J K Rowling and announced various prizes. Naturally, none of them were present at the function so the awards were given in absentia. Two winners, Dr ARK Pillai who works to eradicate leprosy, and Kia Scherr whose husband and daughter were killed during the 26/11 terror attacks in Mumbai, did however attend the event.
Tushar Gandhi, the great grandson of Mahatma Gandhi, presented the awards along with TWPM founder Huzaifa Khorakiwala. Some of the colleges that participated include K J Somaiya, Jaihind, SCOE Kharghar, St Andrews, NMIMS, Rizvi, SNDT, L S Raheja, KC, Mithibai and IIT Bombay.
TWPM also claims to have acquired one million followers online that comprise its 'World Peace Army'. Khorakiwala, who belongs to the Wockhardt Group, said this was the "sixth largest army in the world", bigger than the United Nations' peacekeeping force. He wants it to outnumber the Chinese army which is the largest in the world with reportedly 2.3 million soldiers.
