Bengaluru is gearing up for yet another bandh scheduled for Friday, as Kannada organisations have declared a day-long shutdown across the state opposing releasing Cauvery water to neighbouring Tamil Nadu. This bandh is expected to disrupt the daily lives of residents, with the possibility of private and public transport going off roads, shops, eateries and theatres shutting down, even as schools and colleges have been declared a holiday, as a precautionary measure.
Following the bandh call by Kannada organisations, numerous other organisations, such as public and private transportation unions, private school administrations, the film industry, as well as hotel and restaurant associations, declared their support.
