The Congress on Tuesday organised a marathon in Lucknow to boost women empowerment under its 'Ladki Hoon, Lad Sakti Hoon (I'm a girl and can fight)' campaign in poll-bound Uttar Pradesh.

Women in large numbers participated in the race.

Earlier the state administration had denied permission for the race in view of an increasing number of COVID-19 cases.
