- Bandh abstract "Bandh, originally a Hindi word meaning "closed", is a form of protest used by political activists in South Asian countries such as India and Nepal. During a bandh, a political party or a community declares a general strike. A Bharat bandh is a call for a bandh across India, and a bandh can also be called for an individual state or municipality.Often, the community or political party declaring a bandh expects the general public to stay in at home and not report to work. Most affected are shopkeepers who are expected to keep their shops closed, as well as public transport operators of buses and cabs who are expected to stay off the road and not carry passengers. There have been instances when large metro cities have been brought to a standstill.A bandh is a powerful means of civil disobedience. Because of the huge impact of a bandh on the local community, it is a much-feared tool of protest.Burglary, forced closures, arson attacks, stoning, and clashes between the bandh organizers and the police are common during the period of closure.The state with the highest incidence of bandhs in India is West Bengal where the average number of bandhs per year is 40-50 (ranging in duration from a couple of hours to a maximum of two days per bandh).".
