Street play (Nukkad Natak) "Chuppi Todo" was staged in Hoshiyarpur area by a group of students and volunteers of The Art of Living.

"The objective behind the street play was to motivate women break their silence and raise voice over the atrocities and violence on them," Sanjay Singh, organiser of the event said.

It also aimed at making males realise gender equality and respect women, he said adding, "We informed people during the street play about the 3 R's (Recognise, Resist and Report)."

The street play was followed by a walkathon in Hoshiyarpur village, in which over 500 students and employees of a private firm participated.

 

"The walkathon was aimed to prevent the sexual abuse of children," Singh said.
