4th National March for Life

The upcoming 4th National March for Life, to be held on 9th August 2025 in the Metropolitan Archdiocese of Bangalore, hosted by Archbishop Peter Machado.

This date marks 54 years since the legalization of abortion in India through the Medical Termination of Pregnancy Act (1971). In response to the ongoing challenges posed by abortion and related issues, this March is a profound opportunity for the faithful to unite in defense of the unborn and proclaim the sacred dignity of every human life.

The Pro-life movement in India, coordinated at the national level by CHARIS India under the guidance of Archbishop Francis Kalist, continues to grow. The previous National March held in Trichur saw the participation of over 14,000 faithful, and this year we hope to witness even greater numbers.

Archbishop Mar Andrews Thazhath, President of the Catholic Bishops’ Conference of India (CBCI) earnestly request the presence of all the members of the hierarchy at this important event and encourage wide participation from their Archdiocese/Diocese. 
Let us come together in witness to the Gospel of Life and stand for the voiceless and vulnerable.
