Bandh in TamilNadu for Srilankan Tamil Peace and Muthukumars death
Situation in and around chennai at 9am IST
After Muthukumar 's death, The Sri Lankan Tamils Protection Movement, an umbrella organisation consisting of parties like the PMK, CPI and the MDMK called for a bandh across Tamil Nadu today.
The Supreme Court on Tuesday had refused to stay the bandh saying the parties have a right to express their feelings. Meanwhile, the ruling party in the state has opposed the bandh terming it against law.
We cant say normal life in Tamil Nadu has come to a standstill. Lot of people through public transport are moving and the private companies functions normally. Incidentally, it also happens to be the day Sri Lanka celebrates its 61st independence day.
