Geri route
The ''Geri route'' is a set of streets in northern Chandigarh where youth, mostly students, regularly drive cars and motorbikes. The word geri means "rounds", and thus the name derives from the "rounds" that people make through the route. The route, spans from Sectors 8,9,10 to 11, with the core being around DAV College, Home Science College for Girls in Sector-10 and Govt. College for Girls in Sector-11. It has been used in this manner since the 1970s, with the route especially gaining popularity in the 1980s when car ownership became more common among young residents. ==Valentine's Day== Since at least 2001, local police have maintained a very strong presence on Valentine's Day to prevent eve teasing and other forms of harassment, as well as traffic violations.〔〔 In 2007 and 2011, Panjab University, which lies, along the route closed its campus, allowing only those with student permits to enter.〔〔 In addition, at least as far back as 2002, portions of the route have been barricaded to completely block traffic.〔〔〔 The heavy police presence is in part due to documented illegal activities, such as one year when some women travelling on the route were molested.〔 Police also set up checkpoints and provide other security on Holi.
