ULF bandh total; disrupts normal life

Normal life remained paralyzed following ULFA’s state-wide bandh call in protest against prime minister Dr Manmohan Singh’s visit on Friday. The bandh was by and large peaceful. There was no report of any untoward incident during this total bandh.

The statewide-bandh began at 6 on Friday morning across the state. Roads in Guwahati wore a deserted look. Shops and markets, schools and colleges remained closed throughout the day. The government offices witnessed thin attendance. This was what the scenario on Friday in Nagaon, Jorhat, Dibrugarh, Tinsukia, Tezpur.
