MUMBAI: Delhi's Qutub Minar, Humayun's Tomb, Purana Quila and Hyderabad's Charminar will turn pink on October 11 to mobilize support for girls' rights and create awareness. A child rights NGO will be illuminating these monuments for the first ever 'International Day of the Girl Child.' The NGO has also released the findings of the 'State of the Girl Child in India 2012' report.

The United Nations recently declared October 11 as the 'International Day of the Girl Child.' "The illumination of landmark monuments is a symbolic nationwide call for all to join hands together to support girls' rights. A girl in India faces barriers at every stage of her life including violations of her right to get access to quality education, proper healthcare, and protection from abuse and exploitation. Our campaign 'Because I am a Girl' is committed towards galvanising action to ensure every girl is able to realize her full potential," said a statement released by the NGO.

In 2009, the NGO released the first report on the state of the girl child in India, analyzing the overall challenges faced by girls. The 2010 report focused on lives of adolescent girls in two of the fastest growing social action arenas in the world today__ the urban environment and the space of internet and mobile communications. The third report in 2011 examined the engagement of men and boys towards gender equality in India. The 2012 report focuses on building the human capital of girls through knowledge and skills, aiming to equip, enable and empower girls of all ages to acquire the assets, skills and knowledge necessary to succeed in life.
