Roses for passengers

PATNA: In a symbolic gesture, students belonging to the RJD, Congress and NCP handed roses to passengers of the Lokmanya Tilak Express at the Patna Railway Junction on Tuesday.

The strategy is aimed at sending a message of peace, love and brotherhood to those going to Mumbai hoping that it will be well received in equal terms.

The passengers were requested to hand the flowers to Maharashtra Navnirman Sena chief Raj Thackeray. The students hope that this gesture will change his attitude.
