22nd January 2009 - Kolkata back in bandh biz

Kolkata will experience its first bandh of 2009 today, thanks to the Socialist Unity Centre of India (SUCI), a small Left party and an ally of Mamata Banerjee’s Trinamool Congress, putting its foot forward for a 12-hour Bangla bandh protesting against price rise and demanding reduction in bus fares. The party plans to disrupt railway services and has asked its cadres to block busy roads throughout the city.
