definitely not feasible financially...... bt a good initiative nonetheless.....
Anyone remember the 'pink underwear' campaign targeted at Muthalik (Banglr pub incident) etc ? Didnt work much but was a great awareness campaign.
the Pink underwear concept was innovative, and it worked, to what it was targeted to.. it will go down in the history books as the most innovative protests..
i stand corrected.. Pink Chaddi.. thanks Addy..
it worked in matters of creatin awareness... didnt hit the 'target' tht much.. but nonetheless, it motivated ppl..esp the youth across the country to discover new ways to protest......
yeah Mayank... it did hit the Target, and Bang On! After that, the Ram Sena is more silent... any move from them and we all are gonna hit them back...
Psst.. there are lot of guys who specifically bought pink chaddi and sent them over.. wow!
you gotta visit a Lingerie shop for that dude...
its not feasible.. i wrote on my blog about it..
dont you use any Rick or Cabs dude?
I still saw so many rickshaws being hired, even by professionals.. this isnt the way I would have expected people to respond such a brilliant initiative...
however i cant find fault with them.. for me, travelling from Kanjurmarg to Sakhi Vihar is always a pain.. you can hardly find a bus that will not have ppl standing on the footboard.. understandably, you need to find an alternative and apart from ricks, there arent any.
real world situations at times are really demanding and leads to one live underpinned...
Yup, Meterjam is an amazing initiative. I had always wanted a mass boycott of those buggers. I am glad it has come true.
I read it in the Mumbai Mirror edition of Times of India... we all should be following it...
