Hartal in Mangaluru: Central market, fish docks closed in city
Mangaluru: In a bid to protest the rape incidents in the country, especially the rapes of Kathua, Unnao and Surat, traders at central market, labourers and fish docks staged a hartal on Monday.
The hartal was self-motivated as no organization has given a call for the protest. According to sources, the traders have closed their shops by their own.
As a part of the protest preparation, the traders did not order fresh goods for sale. Rather they tried to clear the available stock. It is learnt that, even for Monday they are not going to order fresh goods.
