A week after Narwal's ashes were immersed in Ganga, hundreds of people gathered in Karnal, the naval officer's hometown, to celebrate his life by taking part in a blood donation camp.
Himanshi Narwal spoke to reporters on Thursday and stated, "We don't want people going against Muslims or Kashmiris."
She continued to say, "We want peace and only peace. Of course, we want justice."
Narwal got married on April 16, just six days before the attack. Narwal had been serving at the Southern Naval Command in Kochi for the past one-and-a-half years after joining the Navy in 2022.
Wiping tears off her face, Himanshi offered floral tributes to her late husband and blew a kiss to his photograph. The Naval officer바카라s mother also kissed her son바카라s photo and paid him respect with folded hands.
Narwal's sister, Shristi expressed her gratitude to people who participated in the blood donation camp.
"I want to thank everyone who travelled from far to come here to donate blood. We have been receiving messages too. People have responded enthusiastically (to the blood donation camp). The government has also done a lot," Shristi said.
The camp was organised by Karnal-based NGO National Integrated Forum of Artists and Activists (NIFAA). Various speakers while addressing the gathering said the late officer dedicatedly served his nation while in service and will continue to live in everyone's hearts forever.
"A youth who was supposed to serve the country for many years was snatched away by terrorism. A soldier on the battle ground saves people's life by shedding blood. We are today donating blood in his honour to save people's lives," Chairperson of NIFAA Pritpal Singh Pannu said.
Narwal's mother and wife Himanshi became teary eyed as tributes were being paid to the Naval officer at the camp.

A video went viral on the social media here on Tuesday in which two Kashmiri shawl vendors in Mussoorie can be seen being slapped by a group of local men and forced to shut their shop.
In the video, they were seen being abused and slapped repeatedly by a group of three persons led by a bearded man and were asked to wind up and pack off. They were slapped a few times more after one of them produced an Aadhar card establishing his identity as an inhabitant of Jammu and Kashmir.
The three men who slapped the shawl vendors have been arrested, DGP Deepam Seth said.
Around 16 Kashmiri shawl vendors from Mussoorie have now returned to the Kashmir valley after this incident.
The Hindu reported that in a Punjab college, Kashmiri students say they were assaulted and attacked by other students armed with sticks and knives.
Even in Uttarakhand, a right-wing group threatened Kashmiri students to leave Dehradun or face reprisal.
Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah condemned the incidents and said, "The J&K government is in touch with the governments of the States where these reports are originating from. I바카라m also in touch with my counterpart Chief Ministers in these States & have requested they take extra care."
