Amritsar, March 10, 2022: BSF Seema Bhawani team reached Wagah Attari Border via Amritsar today in their remarkable attempt to travel the 5280 kms on the Royal Enfield Classic 350. Organized in association with Royal Enfield, the Seema Bhawani Shaurya Expedition “Empowerment Ride – 2022” was flagged off at 1000 hrs on 8th March from India Gate, New Delhi and the riders traveled over 450 kms to reach Wagah Border in the evening.
Flagged off on the occasion of International Women’s Day, 2022, the expedition is an attempt to bring forth an awareness about the capabilities of women while emphasizing on freedom from bias, stereotypes and discrimination.
