Balangir: A 12-hour bandh call given by Citizen Forum in Patnagarh over construction of a railway line crippled life this morning.

The bandh which was observed from 6 am in the morning resulted in closing down of shops and cancellation of classes in schools, colleges and other educational institutions in Patnagarh area.

Commuters had a tough time in the area also due to disruption of road traffic following picketing and road blockades conducted by Citizen Forum members during the bandh call.

Local police made ample security arrangements to keep any type of law and order situation arising out of the bandh observation at bay.

The Forum is demanding immediate construction of Patnagarh-Khaprakhol rail track.
