Indians especially women must boycott this years Republic Day on 26th Jan and should mark it a black Day with black flags all over india and even abroad in protest of Govt. of India's and its ruling political elites' lethargy and failure in ensuring the security of India's women.
Indian women plz raise Black flag instead of tricolor on 26th Jan.
women should boycott the Republic Day parade. Because a country that can't protect its women has no business to show off its military might.

Call given for boycott of R-Day
The Internet was abuzz with people asking their friends to the shun 26 January parade.

ngered by the government's refusal to allow protests at India Gate, citizens, netizens and Indian Diaspora are pushing for a boycott of the customary Republic Day parade. The Internet was abuzz with people, cutting across region and religion, asking their friends to shun 26 January parade.
As the country woke up to the tragic death of the girl, people active on Twitter started tweeting about boycott Republic Day (#boycottrepublicday). The call to boycott the Republic Day parade was also shared through text messages and social networks like Facebook.
Alka Singh, a graduate research assistant at University of Memphis, wrote that the nation should make sure that 26 January is a "no show" in view of the Delhi "brave heart" who passed away last night. "We have a failed government rooted in corruption! It's time for revolution," her Facebook status read.
Similar views were echoed by Kapil Agrawal, an employee of Tata Technology, who is based in Coventry, United Kingdom. "Please boycott the Republic day, if they (the government) cannot allow us to come together to register a peaceful protest, there is no point in attending their pompous show," Kapil wrote on his Facebook wall.
By evening, hundreds of Twitter users had expressed their anger on the popular micro blogging site and #boycottrepublicday became one of the most used hashtags. A user rammitsharma wrote — "Ensure a 'no show' on Republic Day. Why should crowds gather to hear them at their convenience?" Similarly, another user Geetanjali said, "Had an influential politician died, Republic Day would have been cancelled. Will the government do it now? Lets #boycottrepublicday."
A tweet by the popular parody website fakingnews.com (Fakingnews) said, "Republic day parade tableau for Delhi should show two eyes in tears and tear gas shells lying on the ground." This was one of the most re-tweeted tweets.
A user Sa'd Mohammad wrote, "If the nation wants to protest then we should boycott Republic Day celebrations to show the government that we are not happy." Another user teemus said, "Dear non-rapists of NCR please boycott the 2013 Republic Day celebrations. Do not go and watch the parade."
The cause found support in the intelligentsia too. Professor N.K. Pandey (Nkpandey), an IIT Delhi alumnus tweeted, "If people can't show their concern, anguish and protest at India Gate in Indian republic, what's the use of celebrating republic day!"
The message was shared through text messages too. One such message read "The nation should boycott the republic day celebrations in totality. Ensure a 'no show.' What is the nation celebrating anyway? Failed government that is loathing in corruption."

I support Wg Cdr CK Sharma’s appeal to boycott India’s “Republic Day” this year
Received this appeal over the internet:
As some FTI members note: Let all government functions on Republic Day across the country face a boycott. Celebrations under the situation we are in, today, is mockery of people. The Republic has failed, We should observe its passing. We form the Republic but Republic is not us, it is our creation. It is time to build the second Republic of India. Let this message spread across all Indians;
Only PM and his securities will be there to address the empty "gatherings".
Let us signal that change is needed. NOW.
Let us demand that India become a Sone Ki Chidiya once again. NOW.
FTI has operated a Facebook page to boycott the corrupt politicians of India for a very long time now. This is the time to operationalise this boycott.
NEVER should ANY citizen salute any corrupt politician.
Extrapolating what an FTI member has noted: There is nothing to celebrate. Let only politicians "celebrate" their loot and destruction of India.
==================================================================
Fed up with the government's inaction, protesters across the nation are signaling that they are in for a long haul. To make it bring strong laws against rape. The movers of the anti-rape movement are now calling for a boycott of the Republic Day. One of the more telling statements on Twitter says, women should boycott the Republic Day parade. Because a country that can't protect its women has no business to show off its military might.NewsX believes that the Republic Day is a day when India recognises its martyrs and the soverignity of the people. But our Government, instead of working for its people, by taking appropriate steps to stop the violence against women, is keeping the nation backward by neglecting a legitimate demand.

Received this appeal over the internet:
I fully agree with this appeal.In view of death of Delhi's braveheart, nation should boycott Republic Day celebrations in totality! Ensure a "NO SHOW". They don't want the citizens gathering even for a peaceful protest, so why should crowds gather to hear them at their convenience? And what is the Nation celebrating anyway?
We have a failed Government loathing in Corruption! It is time for a Revolution!
Let the PM & the President address vacant spaces & buildings. They don't want our presence now but let us be absent when it matters most. Let the world get a taste of our disgust. Let us shame them by playing their game."
Let us prepare for a New India!
PLEASE SHARE!
