Thanks for the list dear @Rahul001
I will try to catch up with the Pune Pride March.
IISER is adjacent to my residence - so I will catch up with them a day ahead to know the location and time.

Thank you Tushar for your valuable comment. March in most cities happens at same dates each year most probably. But on Pride Month, we will have some sort of event or walk related to that!

Thank you for sharing @Rahul001
Regards,

Oh really, I don’t know this happened in Chennai too. Next year if possible I will try to attend. @Rahul001 thanks for sharing this information.

Happy Purple Friday @Rahul001 you are taking a great initiative.
