The Don Bosco Youth Forum, under the aegis of FCDP, organised a cycle rally on November 13, 2021, to commemorate Children’s Day.
Mr. Madhu, Deputy Mayor, Kollam, inaugurated the rally. Mr. K.P. Sajinath, Chairperson of the Child Welfare Council, gave the keynote address.
The Don Bosco Youth Forum, in association with the Rotary Club, Thangassery, organised this rally to spread the message of ensuring and protecting the rights of children. Mr. Madhu flagged off the rally which began from Kochupilamoodu through Chinnakada, Vadi, and Thangassery and concluded at the beach. Taking into account the increasing rate of crimes against children, the initiative aimed to raise awareness among the public about child rights and the need to protect them.

Sajinath, the Chief Guest, spoke about the legal protection extended to children by the government institutions such as the Child Rights Commission and Council for Child Welfare.
