The students carried banners graphically depicting the horror caused by the atom bomb.
The peace march was jointly organised by Bombay Sarvodaya Mandal and NSS units of SNDT and Mumbai University to mark the 67th anniversary of the devastation of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
A huge banner depicting the devastating effects of nuclear attack and warning about such future threats was also carried by the participants.
They were wearing aprons and Gandhi caps with slogans like 'No More Hiroshima' and 'Save Mother-Earth'.
NSS volunteers from various colleges were also seen holding placards and banners with slogans like 'NO-BOMB, YES-PEACE', and 'We want to grow up, not to blow up'.
The rally started from Azad Maidan and concluded at Hutatma Chowk, where a pledge was taken by the students to work for a nuclear-free world.
