Recently, in the Aurat March rally in Lahore, the women used the song with a twist as they changed their lyrics.

“Rasta choriae ab ham aa gaye/ Garbar ke bawajood March kar gaye/Mashra aur state khechain tangain, phir bhi chah gaye na.”

Rasta choriae ab ham aa gayae,
Garbar ke bawajood March kar gayae,
Mashra aur state khechain tangain, phir bhi chah gayae na,

During our ration distribution campaigns in Umerkot and other districts of Sindh, we saw how victims of bonded labour were disproportionately affected by the 2022 floods. #AuratMarch2023 #RiyasatJawabDouZulmKqHisaabDou pic.twitter.com/dbt8CKbIKc
