Bengal Bandh today: Know what will remain open in this BJP-led bandh

The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has called for a 12-hour bandh across West Bengal in response to the police handling of protesters heading towards the state secretariat. This demonstration comes in the wake of the recent rape and murder of a 31-year-old doctor at RG Kar Medical College and Hospital in Kolkata.

Sukanta Majumdar, the President of Bengal BJP, urged residents to join the general strike, which is set to take place from 6 AM to 6 PM tomorrow. She condemned the horrific incident, calling it a serious threat to public safety and demanding swift action from state authorities.
