Bandh disrupts normal life, but Pune manages to scrape through

The nationwide bandh called by the BJP-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA) and the left-wing parties to protest against the price hike in petrol and high cost of other essential commodities yesterday got a mixed response in the city

The bandh did not affect the daily activities of the people much, although some stone-pelting and damage to vehicles was reported. The violence and the fact that many shops remained shut disrupted the life of the common man to some extent. The main targets of protesters were the Swargate, Kothrud, Deccan and PMC bus depots, where 27 PMPML buses were damaged.
