The marchers left Nainital at 7am with local Tibetan residents cheering them on. Members of Gyagar Khampa (the association of Tibetans who came to India before 1959) and different Indian associations, such as Indian Shopkeepers Association (Bhawali), marched alongside the marchers until Bhawali. The Tibetan market in Nainital was also closed to show support and solidarity with the marchers.

After the marchers departed, the Presidents of all five organizing NGOs held a press conference at 10:30am at the Press Club of Nainital. After the daily prayers in the evening, the Presidents rejoined the marchers, briefing them about the press conference and discussing the march.

The marchers camped for the night at Shri Kainchi Dam after walking 20 kilometers.
