The Wait Is Finally Over, Raahgiri Makes A Comeback In Delhi After Two Years

The local event that started in the city in 2014 is now held in over 70 cities.

Whats Hot Delhi

In 2014, Delhi hosted an initiative to reclaim the city’s streets from vehicles in order to cut back on pollution and promote sustainable mobility. The event, known as Raahgiri, went viral after a the video was uploaded online and soon after it was adopted by over 70 cities across the nation. Sadly, new Delhi failed to reorganise the event after a few editions and now it seems like the initiative is making a comeback, thanks to the laborious efforts of Delhi Police and The Raahgiri Foundation.

The initiative is facilitating a real change in the lifestyle of the local people by engaging them in a range of activities from Zumba to Bhaangra. The initiative will begin at CP but is expected to spread across other parts of the metropolitan soon.

Whats Hot Delhi

It is no mere coincidence that the revival of Raahgiri is being brought into effect on the same day as World Cancer Day. Delhi is currently in the midst of its worst environmental crisis and it will only take initiatives like Raahgiri to aware people and awaken legislatures on the ill effects of air pollution.
