#EqualStreets Anthem: Tu bhar le mutthi hawa ki,
Chal kirno pe karen tairaki ki,
Sadak ko kar de aangan ab tu
Pankhon ko de bebaaqi,
Phir uda ja tu
Nikal jaa tu
Pooch ke pata ambar ka
Kar de kuch babander sa
Aur naach khol ke apne par
Chal mumbai kar , chal mumbai kar! 2/2

Each day, we experience the treacherous footpaths in our cities. More hurdles than path are a tough way to live. Check out this short film on changing the reality of #walking: bit.ly/2LQQyMD.
We stand for this no more. #RighttoWalk #KaiseChalegaMumbai #Mumbai
The #RighttoWalk movement has one of the most beautiful voices: the incredibly talented @Salim_Merchant, who will unveil the anthem at Citi Bank Junction on Linking Road, Khar. Join in this #Sunday, 3rd June to assert your right to a walk-friendly #Mumbai. #KaiseChalegaMumbai!!
Come join us this Sunday, to spread the message! teapaw.org/ndcnn/status/100241243…
Right now city streets seem to belong only to vehicles. When will walkers get equal rights on roads with proper pedestrian paths and demarcated areas to cross over? teapaw.org/EqualStreets/status/10…

This Sunday, 3rd June, come together as we present the #RighttoWalk campaign to bring focus to the plight of millions of #pedestrians in #Mumbai. Join the march to assert the pedestrian's needs for better and safer #infrastructure in our city. #KaiseChalegaMumbai? Stay tuned!
#Didyouknow that almost 2 people die each day on #Mumbai's roads, due to traffic injuries? Around 40% of these deaths are pedestrians. #KaiseChalegaMumbai?
#RighttoWalk #Walking #RoadSafety
#Didyouknow that of the entire road space, only about 17% (on average) is available for pedestrian movement? And, much of this is encroached by parking, vending, etc. #KaiseChalegaMumbai?
#RighttoWalk #EqualStreets #WhereisMyFootpath
#KaiseChalegaMumbai?
#Didyouknow that more than 50% of trips in #Mumbai are made by walking? Yet, there is no #infrastructure to support them.

Another innovation and this time its #Jhajjar, again a small town in #Haryana which innovates #Raahgiri Day into Raahgiri Night.
Giving streets to people in the #night. Wow!
Kudos @JhajjarDc @police_haryana @Pankaj_Nain_IPS & @mlkhattar @RaoNarbir @PandaSarika for support.
