Its is sheer stupidity of students organizing such bandh...its is the poor of the villages who earn their night bread with the money they get by selling sabjji during day in the bazzar whom they r making them to supper.. such bandh should not be done time n again... as a student body they must have an official talk in an educated n matured manner..
