Forget Casual Friday, BJP corporator Ram Barot wants a Khadi Friday. His reasoning: Mahatma Gandhi was assassinated on a Friday and so, every Friday must be used to infuse a spirit of nationalism in citizens. Barot has moved a notice on this for a discussion at the next general body meeting of the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC), expected to be convened in the third week of this month. If the motion is cleared, all BMC employees and students of civic schools will have to sport khadi every Friday.
