MUMBAI: eBay India along with Band Sanam launched its campaign #NoWorldWithoutGirls. The campaign reinforces prohibition of sex determination kits and addresses a social evil that is prevalent across the Indian society towards acceptance of a girl child.
Sanam – a band comprising Sanam Puri (lead vocals), Samar Puri (lead guitar), Venky S (bass guitar), Keshav Dhanraj (drums) is India’s largest online music sensation and amongst India’s top 10 independent YouTube channels, will release a music video set against a backdrop, which highlights the harshest judgement faced by a daughter even before she is born.
The new campaign an extension of eBay’s earlier campaign #ThingsDontJudge is an endeavor to inform consumers that while they can shop for over 10 crore products on the online site, but the one product that is prohibited is ‘sex determination kits’.
To spread awareness for the new campaign, eBay India and the #Fab4, Sanam launched the music video on 20 July, 2017 across all digital platforms.
eBay India director - marketing Shivani Suri said, “We stand against the one thing that judges a girl even before she is born, by prohibiting availability of sex determination kits on our site. Through the campaign and our association with Sanam, we aim to drive awareness for this cause amongst the youth in the language (music) they understand best.”
Sanam said, “Music is an extremely powerful medium to send across a message and we believe that our latest attempt will strike the right chord with our loyal fan base."
