The nationwide Bharat Bandh created a lot of stir not only in India but throughout the globe. The nationwide strike was announced for protesting against the new farmer’s Bill passed by the Central Government. The farmers from Punjab have marched towards Delhi by walk to meet the government officials and withdraw the Bill.
The nationwide Bharat Bandh was expected to create a lot of stir. No doubt, the strike has a lot of effect in the northern regions of the country; however, down south, it has received a lukewarm response. Especially in Karnataka, there was nothing as much entropy as was expected.
Except for minor incidences where leaders are asking shopkeepers to close their shops, districts like Mandya, Hassan, Mysuru, and other rural parts enjoyed the freedom and worked like a usual working day.
Like Bengaluru, almost all major cities — Managluru, Hubli-Dharwad, Belagavi — did not evoke much of a response here too. All government offices, banks, and shops were functioning normally.
