St Xavier's College is set to launch its 150th year celebrations, but all hasn't started on a good note. An invitation sent to alumnus Aaditya Thackeray, to be part of a press meet called on Thursday to announce the schedule of events that would start on December 3 and continue till mid-2019, didn't go down well with many at the institute.

Thackeray was seen sharing the dais with many 'notable alumni' of the college at the conference even as a petition posted on social media against the invitation continues to garner signatures.
