This newspaper article is from Kannur, a district in Kerala, India. The ladies gathered in the city center to ask for the rights for sharing the city at night. The ladies did a group painting in a large canvas which gave out messages that everywhere women face the same kind of problems, especially in the streets while traveling at night. They held this gathering in order to demand their right to travel safe at nights.
There was a protest and rally, where they held lit candles, it lasted almost till day break and they rallied through the city. Thousands of women joined in the rally.
