The Rajasthan Royals (RR) have decided to take it upon themselves to power Rajasthan. Ahead of the RR vs RCB match, the franchise decided to start the initiative ‘Aurat Hai Toh Bharat Hai’. The match that is being played at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium is being labeled as the ‘Pink Match’.
As a part of this initiative, the franchise will provide solar power to six homes for every 6 hit in the match. The Rajasthan Royals Foundation is aiming to empower women in their home state, and the home team is also sporting an all-pink jersey to lend their support for the cause.
