Scores of candles were lit on the middle of the road with one poster saying, "Dear daughter, we are sorry we could not save you".
While there were some speeches, pressing for action against crimes such as rape, clusters of people sat around to vent their ire, chanting slogans. One huge cloth banner read "Give justice to Damini", a generic reference to the brave woman who continues to be unnamed and unidentified.
"Chemical Castration for Accused" and "2013: Make India Safer for Women" were some of the other posters.
