With farmers and Kannada organisations divided over the Bengaluru bandh call for Tuesday, as a section of them remaining firm on a Statewide shutdown on September 29, confusion and chaos ruled on Monday.
Many organisations that had earlier supported Tuesday’s bandh call withdrew, indicating they may participate in the Karnataka bandh later this week.
This would essentially mean the Bengaluru bandh on Tuesday would at best be partial. While cabs, autorickshaws, and hotels and restaurants have decided to do usual business, Bengaluru (Urban) district administration has declared a holiday for schools and colleges as a precautionary measure.
