INDIA bloc organizes Puducherry bandh against increased electricity tariffs and power distribution privatization.
The INDIA bloc, including Congress and DMK, organized a bandh in Puducherry on September 18 to protest increased electricity tariffs and the privatization of power distribution by the AINRC-BJP coalition. The strike disrupted transportation and led to the suspension of classes for grades 1 to 8. Opposition leaders claim these measures will harm consumers and farmers, urging the government to reverse its decisions on tariffs and pre-paid meters.
