They talk about us.
We're done waiting.

A cycle yatra across UP — to listen to young people, and to say the thing out loud.

सुनने आए हैं। सुनाने भी।

Everyone thinks they're doing what's best for us. Nobody ever talks to us.

Government. Policy makers. Bureaucracy. Everybody has failed us.

तो GenZ खुद निकल पड़े — साइकिल पर, अपनी बात सुनने और सुनाने।

Chalta hai — cancelled ✕
The issues

The list is endless.
We start here.

Three problems every town on this route shares. Yours might not be on the list — bring it to the meetup anyway.

01 / SCHOOL

The building is there. The school isn't.

पंखा नहीं, टॉयलेट नहीं, लैब नहीं।

No fan. No working toilet. No lab, no ground, no teacher for half the periods. A room with a roof is not an education.

"Humare school mein science lab ka darwaza hi nahi khulta."

02 / COLLEGE

Admission mila. Baaki kuch nahi mila.

डिग्री मिली, रास्ता नहीं मिला।

Locked labs, missing faculty, no placement cell, no internships, no seniors who got anywhere. A degree that ends at the college gate.

"Final year hai. Placement cell ka office kabhi khula hi nahi dekha."

03 / JOBS

Form bhara. Exam diya. Paper leak.

इंतज़ार ही करियर बन गया है।

Lakhs of us for a handful of posts — and the exam gets cancelled, postponed, leaked. And everyone knows the other route, the one with a price on it.

UPSSSC · UPPSC RO/ARO · UP SI · Assistant Professor
Different exam. Same fate.

40 lakh. 50 lakh. One crore.
That's what a job costs now.

"Teesri baar form bhara hai. Umar nikal rahi hai."

On the ground

Meetups

We stop, we sit down, we listen. Between 20 August and 2 October we'll be in 41 towns — each stop's date and venue goes up two weeks before we get there.

Campus Connect

कॉलेज के अंदर, कॉलेज वालों के साथ

One open hour on campus. Careers, exams and what comes after the degree — and the everyday stuff too: drinking water, toilets, hostels, labs that stay locked.

Chowk Baithak

चौक पर, सबके सामने

A public conversation in the town's own space. Anyone can speak. Five minutes each, no exceptions.

Sunwai

आपकी बात, कैमरे पर

Say it to the camera. Your school, your college, your exam. We cut it and put it out — so the problem stops being only yours.

Night Circle

रैप, बिरहा, बहस — रात भर

Riders, hosts, local artists. Rappers and folk singers on the same mic. This is where it becomes a movement.

No meetup in your town yet? Join the WhatsApp group and tell us — we'll come to you.

Why it matters

What changes

A yatra is not a magic wand. So here's exactly what this one does.

On the road

We listen, we film, we push

Your school, your college, your exam — heard on the ground and cut into videos that go out everywhere. Then we keep asking until somebody has to answer.

For good

We build the Gen Z UP team

Every stop leaves behind a youth team that keeps going after the cycles have moved on — a network across UP that doesn't wait for permission.

And personally

You get a fam

Ride one day and you're in. People your age, from towns like yours, fighting for the same things. Most of us have been doing this alone — that ends here.

Straight up: we can't fix your college by December. What we can do is make sure nobody gets to pretend it's fine — and make sure you're not the only one asking. That's how anything has ever moved here.

Take part

Join us

Ride

एक दिन या पूरा रास्ता

Cycle with us for a day, a district, or the whole route.

Host

अपने शहर में बुलाइए

Bring the yatra to your campus, mohalla or chowk.

Document

कैमरा भी एक सीट है

Shoot, edit, write, post. Hold a phone steady and you're in.

Just show up

बस आ जाइए

Two hours at the meetup in your town. That's enough.

This is a Gen Z yatra. It runs on our own fam and our own community — nobody else is paying for it.
