THENI: To stress communal harmony and ensure safe journey of padyatris, members of the Muslim Community in Periakulam offered reflector sticks and pamphlets containing road safety measures to pilgrims going to Sri Dhandayuthapaniswamy Temple in Palani for Thai Poosam festival.

Launching the distribution of sticks at a function held in Periakulam near here on Thursday, Superintendent of Police R. Balakrishnan advised padayatris to follow road rules strictly for a safe journey. Walking on the sides of the road would be very safe. The reflector sticks would alert vehicle drivers about the movement of pilgrims on road sides.

Already, the police department had already distributed reflector sticks to Sabarimala pilgrims also. The distribution of sticks by Muslim community would strengthen communal harmony and brotherhood among Hindus and Muslims, he added.

Members of Tamil Nadu Muslim Munnetra Kazhagam took part and distributed sticks.
