You can do this with following code:

HttpSession session = request.getSession();
session.setAttribute("req1", request);

And when you retrieve the request value you have to do this as:

<%= ((HttpServletRequest) rrrr.getAttribute("req1")).getAttribute("request1") %>

After all this: If you want to store an Object in session better way is to store it directly into session, instead of storing a request as attribute in session. See below code:

To store attribute:

HttpSession session = request.getSession();
session.setAttribute("obj1", Object); //  Object is any object that you want to store

and retrieve it as:

HttpSession session = request.getSession(false);
Object o = session.getAttribute("obj1");
