Mumbai Bandh

Mumbai commuters were stranded this morning as the Maha Vikas Aghadi or MVA government called a bandh in solidarity with farmers in Uttar Pradesh, a week after eight people died in violence in UP's Lakhimpur Kheri during a farmers' protest.

Strict action will be taken against anyone trying to force shops and other establishments to down shutters during Tuesday's ''Bharat Bandh'' called by various outfits and political parties against the centre's new farm laws, Mumbai police officials said.

At least 47 protesters were arrested on Wednesday during a "Rail Roko'' (train blockade) at Kanjurmarg station in Mumbai during a Bharat Bandh called by some organisations against the Citizenship (Amendment) Act.

Bharat Bandh Today: More than ten national trade unions have called for a nationwide protest against the growing impact of economic slowdown on jobs, Foreign Direct Investment or FDI, disinvestment, corporatisation and privatisation policies.

Bharat Bandh January 2020: Banking and transport services were hit in some parts of the country on Wednesday as workers affiliated to trade unions protested against privatisation and the impact of economic slowdown on jobs.

All India Strike: Banking services like deposit and withdrawal, cheque clearing and instrument issuance are expected to be impacted due to the strike.

Bharat Bandh tomorrow: Coal India's December production rose after five straight months of declines, the latter reflecting the heaviest monsoon rains in 25 years, strikes and protests.

All India Strike: According to the Centre of Indian Trade Unions (CITU), which is affiliated to the CPI(M), over 25 crore workers will participate in the nationwide strike.

All India Strike: The CITU also said that during the talks on January 2, Labour Minister assured that the government has been taking all steps for the welfare of the workers including legislations on labour codes.

The two-day Bharat Bandh called by ten trade unions disrupted normal life in many parts of the country today. Sporadic violence was reported in West Bengal, Odisha and Kerala. Tyres were burnt and buses were vandalised at many places in Bengal. Protesters blocked roads and obstructed train services in all the three states. Around 20 crore workers o...

Bharat Bandh Highlights: Central Trade Unions or CTUs have launched a two-day nationwide bandh in protest against the government's alleged anti-worker policies and unilateral labour reforms. As many as 10 CTUs with at least 20 crore workers affiliated to them have joined the strike.

As Opposition parties across the nation actively participated in the Bharat bandh move, the Shiv Sena today took a jibe at them, stating that their nation-wide shutdown against the rising fuel prices should not look like a sudden act undertaken after waking up from a "long sleep".

The Maharashtra Congress Monday staged protests in various parts of the state in response to the Bharat Bandh called by the party's central leadership against rising fuel prices.

As petrol prices on Monday shot up to Rs 89.97 in Maharashtra's Parbhani - the highest in India - the Opposition Congress staged a 'rail-roko' agitation in Mumbai as part of the party-sponsored nationwide shutdown to protest rising fuel prices.

Maharashtra is bracing for a day-long shutdown today called by an umbrella organisation of pro-quota Maratha groups, with the authorities ordering closure of schools and colleges in some areas fearing violence. The 'bandh' is being organised despite Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis' assurances that his government was working on providing reservatio...
