The Bharat Bandh scheduled for tomorrow, August 21, 2024, has been organized by the Reservation Bachao Sangharsh Samiti. The protest is against a recent Supreme Court ruling that allows states to create sub-categories within the Scheduled Castes (SC) and Scheduled Tribes (ST) reservations. The protestors demand the reversal of this decision, which they believe is unjust.
What will remain open:
Emergency services: Hospitals, ambulance services, and pharmacies will operate as usual.
Government offices, schools, colleges, and banks are expected to remain open.
Police services will be active to maintain law and order.
What might be closed:
Markets and private offices could see disruptions, especially in regions like Rajasthan, where support for the bandh is stronger.
Public transportation might also be affected in certain areas.
