Were you there?
We had human chain followed by candle walk on necklace road on july 23rd, sunday from 6.30pm onwards.
More than 200 people participated in the event. It was fairly successful.
We started from people's plaza necklace road and marched towards secreteriat. When to procession was moving peacefully towards secreteriate police in its colonial way interevened and stopped our walk.
We paid homage to mumbai blast victims by observing 2 minutes of silence, followed by national anthem.
We are planning have more protest in coming days. Tentatively on 15th August. So stay tuned.

Youth For Equality is Alive!!!
it may be alive but its fighting for a dead cause.
It looks like a good show. These youth have spent their Sunday evening outside, walking togather, instead of going to a movie or drinking in a pub. It is a good excercise. It is good for their heart and mind.
If the marching youth are mostly techies of the IT companies, and not students looking to get into IITs, it must be understood that their agenda is not shared by people who should really be concerned about these issues.
Those students, really interested in getting into IITs, must be studying at home. They have no time to waste on these "feels good" gimmicks.
