The "Fight Against Drugs" motorcycle rally originated from Kerala, traversing southward and northward regions as part of a pan-India initiative marking the 150th birth anniversary of Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel.
The rally kicked off from Kerala, made its way into Goa (reaching Panaji on October 19), and is continuing northward through Maharashtra toward its final destination.
: Held under the banner of a drug-free India campaign, the cross-country ride serves to mobilize youth, law enforcement, and local communities against the narcotics threat.
