Remembering 26/11 attack: Chaiwalla who alerted passengers about attack still awaits govt job promised to him


While everyone is in mourning and paying their tributes to victims of 26/11, a Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus (CST) railway station tea vendor, Mohamed Taufiq Sheikh, popularly known as Chhotu the Chaiwalla, recollected the worst memory of his life. "I was waiting at CST that night to collect money for the tea I had just delivered. I turned around and saw a long line of people waiting at the ticket counter. The government promised him a job in the railways, but eight years on he still sells tea. Praising Prime Minister Narendra Modi's leadership, Taufiq Sheikh said he too is happy to serve the nation and would happily risk his life again.
