We came together as one to pledge to fight for the safety and security of every girl and woman in honour of all the lives lost due to violence against girls and women. We honoured the life of the girl named by the media as "Nirbhaya," which means fearless who was a victim of a horrendous gang rape crime in Delhi who later died of her injuries in Dec 2012.. Thank you to everyone that came out to support this issue.

Rest in peace beautiful Nirbhaya, the name given to the young woman who was a victim of a brutal gang rape in Delhi just a few weeks ago. The horrendous crime shook the world and awoke a country on the atrocities women face in this day and age. After all that she suffered may she at last find peace.
