Harley-Davidsons ride for children’s rights

The rally was held to promote and protect children’s rights during the upcoming 2014 general election. CRY conducted the rally which spread over 50km from Gurgaon’s Cyber Hub to India Gate. Throughout the rally, they held banners displaying slogans which read, “Putting children first,” emphasizing the cause.

World of Talent, a group of drummers performed to stress the importance of child rights in the political manifestos of major parties. A flash mob of CRY volunteers performed for the same cause too. The rally was conducted as part of the NGO’s nationwide Vote for Child Rights campaign that started on November 13, 2013. The campaign aims to conduct more rallies, flash mobs and press conferences like the one in New Delhi, across the country in an effort to spread the message further.
