Protests, Roadblocks Mark Bharat Bandh In Bhubaneswar

Bhubaneswar: The Bharat Bandh, a nationwide strike called by 10 central trade unions and farmers’ groups, has brought the Capital City to a standstill. Over 25 crore workers across India are participating in the strike, protesting against the government’s pro-corporate policies, labour law changes, privatization, and rural distress.

In Bhubaneswar, protesters have blocked roads at various intersections, bringing traffic to a halt. The Master Canteen Square, Vani Vihar Square, Jaydev Vihar Square and Raj Mahal Square have been affected, with protesters picketing and raising slogans.  The strike caused significant disruptions to traffic and left commuters stranded in many parts.

The strike disrupted normal life in many parts of the state, with essential services like hospitals and emergency services remaining open but may face delays and staff shortages.

In Konark, the bandh has had a significant impact on the tourist town of Konark. Under the leadership of Manaranjan Parida, protesters gathered in front of the Sun Temple, staging a demonstration and blocking the main entrance. As a result, tourists who had come to visit the temple were disappointed and returned without viewing the iconic monument.

The town’s bus stand, Chandrabhaga Beach, and other key areas were deserted due to the strike. Banks, post offices, and other essential services remained closed. The shutdown has brought normal life in Konark to a standstill, with tourists and locals alike facing inconvenience.

It is pertinent to mention that the protesters are opposing the four new labour codes passed by Parliament, which they claim undermine workers’ rights by increasing working hours, shielding penalties on employers, and promoting privatization and contractual hiring practices. The strike has seen participation from various sectors, including banking, insurance, postal services, coal mining, construction, and state transport.
