Sonu Da You didn't give in and demonstrated your resolute which has certainly shaken the bus driver and conductors. But still fight is not lost What about Filing complaint to Hariyana Transport Corporation. Sometimes we find ourselves alone in such circumstances what it is also equally true that death is inevitable. So lessons should be taught to such rude bus drivers/conductors and police. We can contect Media persons in this regard as well. Specially Tribune which is locally dominant there. Do let me know, what's your plan now. we can shoot a mail to its Editor.
