About Raahgiri Taraori

In a quest to make Taraori accessible for its residents and encourage the use of cycling, walking and public transport in the city, organizations and activists of Taraori have come together to execute a novel concept  – ‘RAAHGIRI DAY’.


Walking and cycling along with effective public transport is the only solution to urban traffic chaos and other issues related to it. Infrastructure for safe walking and cycling is required in Taraori too and this event will bring more awareness to this need.

Children and adults are invited to cycle, skate, run and walk; to partake in community leisure activities such as street games, street dancing; to learn yoga, aerobics and to come together as a community and celebrate life.

Raahgiri day is one of the first steps towards making Taraori a sustainable and environment friendly city; a city which cares for its future and its resources, a city which is alive and whose citizens take an active part in what it becomes.
