Cauvery bandh set to bring Bengaluru to a halt

September 09, 2016 08:28

The fourth bandh Karnataka witnessing in 45 days on Friday is likely to be the most disruptive of all, especially in Bengaluru, with the state government extending its tacit support to the protest against the Supreme Court directive asking the state to release Cauvery water to Tamil Nadu.

Essential services like milk, ambulances, pharmacy shops and hospitals are unlikely to be affected. But all modes of public transport - BMTC and KSRTC buses, autorickshaws, tourist abs and airport cabs - will remain off road. Namma Metro, too, has called off its services.
