MARG Chennai marathon held on 29 August 2010 was huge hit with around 70000 people participating. Reclaim our beaches (an NGO) was one among them.
 Members of Reclaim our beaches at MARG Chennai Marathon  Members of Reclaim our beaches at MARG Chennai Marathon “Reclaim our beaches” are a group of people who believe that non-human species too have a fundamental and inviolable right to the planet and its resources. They believe that the current manner in which the earth’s resources are shared among people and among species is highly inequitable.
We also believe in their statement that “The state of our beach is a reflection of our apathy, and our failure to practice democracy. We believe that the beach belongs to lovers, hawkers, walkers, Frisbee players, the elderly, the turtle and the fisher folk. But we are also clear that livelihood rights of the poor ought to receive higher priority.”
MARG thanks members of Reclaim our beaches for their active participation and wish them success in their endeavors
