In Mumbai, a transperson was beaten up by goons in a bar and is determined to bring her perpetrators to book. This is a group based out of Mumbai and has people from Mira-Bhayandar, Virar, Navi Mumbai and Thane as a part of the group. This year, as a part of the pride, they organised QUEER HUGS along with another queer group QKnit. They stood at Juhu Beach with colourful balloons and encouraged people to hug queer volunteers. The best part of this group is that it is LGBTQIA+ initiated and LGBTQIA+ focused, but it is not LGBTQIA+ exclusive.
