      Harley-Davidson India found a new way to celebrate the 3rd International Day for the Girl Child, which was on October 11. Hundreds of owners of Harleys across the nation rode along with their daughters in a first father-daughter ride. The message of love and respect, which every girl child deserves, was spread by Anoop Prakash, Director of Harley Davidson India, along with 100 odd members of the Harley-Davidson kin. The riders drove to Vivanta by Taj, Surajkund and most were members of Capital Harley-Davidson. The ride was organised by joining hands with the Bindi Project, which is a non-profit organisation that has the goal of making the country that loves, values and respects its daughters. The primary target of the ride was to imbibe the feeling of love, caring and respect among each parent for their daughters so that the cases of violation of rights and exploitation reduced in the near future.

      Bikram Puri, Director of Capital Harley-Davidson Chapter, stated in a statement, “We are very proud to be a part of the Father-Daughter Ride in partnership with The Bindi Project and spread the message of fostering love and respect for our daughters and women in the society. It was great initiative because it involved our daughters who are our lifelines and we really enjoyed riding with them!”

      The founder of the Bindi Project, Sunil Desai, was also present at the occasion. He said, “On the occasion of the 3rd International Day of the Girl Child, I am deeply grateful to Harley Owners Group for holding Father-Daughter rides across India and encouraging fathers to pledge to love and respect their daughters and share their own stories on social media with hash tag #mydaughtermypride. These actions are exactly the kind that I believe will inspire other men and boys to desire such relationships and foster love and respect for all women and girls in India. We welcome and encourage all individuals and communities of all types to join us.”
