The rally started from the Sector 7 Market–Madhya Marg to Housing board 10 PM covering approximately 5 kms. The Chief Guests for the event were the stars of the new Punjabi movie Rocky Mental–ParmishVerma and Tannu Kaur Gill.

The safety of women, especially in this beautiful city of ours, is something we all need to work together to ensure. He commends Radio Mirchi for taking up the cause of raising awareness about it.
