Uttar Pradesh Youth Launch 'Rang De Basanti' Creative Campaign
The 'Rang De Basanti' youth group in the Indian state of Uttar Pradesh is starting a special campaign.
It is happening just before India's Independence Day.
The campaign helps young people share their thoughts through poems, art, music, and talking to each other.
They want to send a positive message against fear and people who use bad behaviour to control others.
Their main idea is 'brushes instead of guns, dialogue instead of fear.'
That means they choose painting and conversation over violence.
From August 11 to 14, events will happen in cities like Prayagraj, Lucknow, and Muzaffarnagar.
Poets will perform, artists will paint walls, and a comic about people living together peacefully will be shared.
On the last day, they will launch a song called 'Dar Se Azadi' to celebrate freedom from fear.
The 'Rang De Basanti' youth organisation is launching a campaign across Uttar Pradesh ahead of Independence Day.
The campaign aims to give young people a platform for creative expression against mafia rule and a culture of fear.
Its core message is 'brushes instead of guns, dialogue instead of fear.'
Events run from August 11 to 14, including a poetic protest in Prayagraj, a graffiti wall event in Lucknow, and comic distribution in Muzaffarnagar.
On August 14, the campaign song 'Dar Se Azadi' will be launched statewide alongside rap, music and digital art.
