In a 'Gandhigiri' style of protest against yesterday's attack on Congress vice president Rahul Gandhi in Gujarat, Youth Congress workers in the city today showered flowers on the BJP office in suburban Ghatkopar here.
Hundreds of Youth Congress workers gathered outside the BJP office in Ghatkopar and showered flowers on the office and also on some office-bearers of the saffron party.
"We want to shame the BJP and its people and hence, we decided to do through 'Gandhigiri'. We showered flowers on the BJP people, who have shown their true colours by lowering the level of politics and attacking on our party leader in such a way," Suraj Singh Thakur, former office-bearer of National Students Union of India (NSUI), who led the protest, said.
"We not only showered flowers on them, but also wished them 'get well soon'. We hope the BJP would recover from their mental sickness," Thakur added.
Gandhi, who was on a visit to the flood-affected Banaskantha town in Gujarat yesterday, escaped unhurt after some unidentified persons threw a stone at his car in which he was travelling, breaking the glass pane of the rear window of the vehicle.
