Pinjra Tod March in South Campus, DU
- 3 years ago
On October 3, Pinjra Tod, a women’s collective, organised their second night march titled “Women Reclaim the Streets!” in South Campus, Delhi University that began and culminated at Lady Shri Ram College.
Pinjra Tod was created last year and it seeks to challenge the repressive policies of college and hostel authorities, fight against moral policing of women, and ensure safe and affordable housing for female students across Delhi.
Many current students, alumni, and feminist allies participated in the three-hour long, high-spirited event during which they marched across PGs in Greater Kailash, Amar Colony, and National Park chanting slogans and handing out informational pamphlets to passers by.
An escort of police personnel ensured that traffic was held at bay as protestors walked through the streets.
