"We are with them, with their families, we all support them," Gaurav said.
Gaurav was keen to point out that he wanted all people to come out and protest, not just those affected by the Mumbai attacks.
"This is not against any country or against any religion," he said. "It's not against Muslim; it's not against Pakistan. This is against terror. I argue all the people to come here and stand by us and oppose the terror."
Members of the group also said that they hoped that their protest would be a springboard to louder calls for peace.
"We want people like this who have actually gathered in a good amount and we want to improve this mass into a mass movement," Kudchadkar said. "This is something we want to do as a peace rally. The more you do it, the more the terrorists stop and probably this will get united as one community."
One member of the group said that politics was not the answer to solving terrorism, but instead it is down to people all over the world.
"When the bullet strikes only blood falls; it doesn't know which caste, creed, religion, the blood is falling," said Ravikran Deshpande, an electrical engineering graduate student. "The blood is always red. We all have to stand-up; we all have to raise our voices."
