Amarnath land row: Bandh in India

[pps309]

Several highways across the country were blocked and some trains were stopped on Thursday as BJP and VHP workers took to the streets in support of their shutdown to protest revocation of the land allotment to the Amarnath shrine board in Jammu and Kashmir.

While there were reports of several trains being blocked in Agra, the Delhi-Amritsar highway was blocked by Bharatiya Janata Party and Vishwa Hindu Parishad workers. Traffic between Delhi and the suburb of Noida was also impacted with the protesters blocking the DND flyover.

The VHP's international general secretary Praveen Togadia claimed that the strike was completely successful. A Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader added that "the impact was more visible" in states ruled by the party.

BJP and VHP workers came out in large numbers on the streets in cities like Indore, Agra, Aligarh and Bhopal. In Ahmedabad, however, the ruling BJP said it would not join the shutdown given the precarious security situation in view of the annual Jagannath rathyatra on Friday.

"About 150 rathyatras are taken out in the state and keeping the security aspect uppermost in mind we have decided not to join the strike," BJP spokesperson and Rajya Sabha MP Vijay Rupani said.

VHP activists go on rampage in Thane

The bandh turned violent in Thane city and surrounding areas with the VHP activists targetting public transport and other establishments.

Incidents of stone pelting on state transport and private vehicles by VHP activists were reported from various parts of the city including Naupada and Wagle estate, police said.

The activists also disrupted traffic at some places by putting blockades on roads.

Sporadic incidents of stone pelting were also reported from Kalyan, Dombivili and other parts of the district.

No report of anybody getting injured during the incidents was received.


WHY GOVT PROMISE ALL THESE IF THEY CANNOT FULFILL? AREN'T THEY DUPING A PART OF SOCIETY?

Four die in BJP-VHP bandh violence

JAMMU/INDORE/NEW DELHI: Four persons were killed and 20 seriously injured in Indore on Thursday as a nationwide bandh on the Amarnath land transfer controversy called by the VHP and BJP turned violent, even as at least 25 people were hurt in protests across Jammu region.

Indore turned into a battlefield as saffron activists shouting 'pro-Hindutva' slogans faced off with members of the minority Muslim community while trying to force a shut down across the city. Four persons were killed in the resultant clash, forcing the police to lob teargas shells and lathicharge the mobs.

Curfew was imposed in Malharganj, Chhatripura, Pandharinath and Khajrana areas as violence spread. Another 1,000 policemen were called in from neighbouring districts to control the violence.

Shops across India shutdown as violent mobs led by VHP and BJP supporters burnt effigies and buses in Mumbai, Lucknow and other cities. Road and rail traffic came to a standstill, with schools shutting down due to fears that violence would spread.

In Jammu, which is on the boil since Tuesday, protesters defied curfew to burn vehicles and clash with police. At least 25 people were injured taking the total number of injured in the region to 100.

Five Amarnath pilgrims returning from the cave shrine to Jammu were injured when some unidentified people stoned their vehicle at Banihal. At least 15 protesters were injured in clashes with cops.

Life was also hit in parts of Punjab, Haryana, Delhi, UP, Karnataka, Kerala, Maharashtra, Assam and Jharkand, where incidents of stone pelting and road blockade were reported prompting police to resort to lathicharge.

But the bandh had little or no response in Tamil Nadu, West Bengal and Tripura. In Delhi, no untoward incident was reported but several arterial roads were blocked. Shops and business establishments remained closed in some areas. Incidents of stone-pelting and road blockades were reported in parts of Maharashtra, including Mumbai and Thane and protesters damaged five BEST buses, cops said.

Bhopal turned tense after saffron protesters tried to force their way into the Muslim-dominated old quarters. During the clash that followed, a local VHP leader was hit, worsening the situation. Two persons, including an RAF jawan, were injured as the groups clashed in several locations.

In Amritsar, the bandh was complete with unruly mobs forcing the shutdown of banks, chemist shops, petrol pumps, LPG cooking gas offices and roadside kiosks. Meanwhile, in West Bengal apart from disruption of train services in some areas and closure of market at Burrabazar, life was was normal during the bandh. Buses, taxis and trams were plying normally in Kolkata, police sources said.

In Bihar, the bandh evoked a mixed response, with rail traffic disrupted in five towns — Bhagalpur, Muzaffarnagar, Darbhanga, Samastipur and Sasaram. Patna was spared by the protesters, even as state police rounded up about 300 protesters who were released later in the day. Hyderabad reported stray incidents of stone pelting on buses and clashes with the police. While 13 people were arrested for stone pelting, 31 BJP activists were arrested for trying to force shops to close. In most parts of the city, schools and shops remained shut.

In Doon Valley, all schools, colleges, markets and offices remained closed, though essential services were exempted from the bandh. No incident of violence was reported in Doon. In Karnataka, the bandh was near total and peaceful in districts of Kolar, Mysore, Hubli and Mangalore, but made no impact in Bangalore. Business establishments were closed in these districts.

The bandh also evoked a mixed response in UP. Apart from a bus burnt in the old quarters of Lucknow, the city remained peaceful with shops shut in the morning.
