Piyush Monga, a young graduate working in Delhi, was concerned by the increasing number of rape cases in India. After discussing matters with Yogesh Rawal and Ranchod Devashi, they decided to set up an Instagram page called "Youth against rape" which quickly gained 50,000 followers.[7] As of 2021, it has 332,000 followers.[8]

They set up a non-governmental organization called the Youth Against Injustice Foundation which works on eliminating injustices such as rape, fake rape allegations and sexual abuse from India.[9][10] Monga, Rawal and Devashi decided to make a bicycle tour to promote their agenda. In October 2019, the three set off from Jantar Mantar, New Delhi with green signal from Nirbhaya's parents.[11][12] By December 2019, the three had visited over 160 schools in Delhi, Haryana, Rajasthan, Chattisgarh and Gujarat.[13][14][15][16] The three aim to travel over 50,000 kilometres in over two years.[17][18][19][20]
