Opposition’s Bharat bandh: Air, rail traffic disrupted

Kolkata: Total pandemonium is going on in some of the states due to the all India bandh called by the 13 non Congress and non BJP parties. Supporters of those parties are clashing with the police and public properties worth crores of rupees are being destroyed. Many trains have been cancelled and flights in various airports have been called off.
As the state of West Bengal is being ruled by the Leftists, this state is the worst hit. All the private airlines have cancelled their flights to and fro from Kolkata and no taxis or private cars are available at the airport.
Though Leftists have a good base in Kerala, flights have not been disrupted in the state. However, trains have been disrupted at various places and all schools, business establishments and educational institutional are closed.
Orissa is free from such problems as all trains and air traffic is normal.
