Mangaluru: In connection with the murder of rowdy-sheeter Suhas Shetty in Bajpe last night, private buses in the city have suspended operations following a bandh call issued by the Vishwa Hindu Parishad across Dakshina Kannada district.
Most shops and commercial establishments remain shut. Although a few shops and hotels had opened in the morning, they were reportedly forced to close.
Prohibitory orders have been enforced under the jurisdiction of Mangaluru Police Commissionerate. While some private vehicles are still plying, due to the halt in bus services, a bandh-like atmosphere has emerged in most areas.
Security has been tightened in key areas of the city and outskirts. Additional Director General of Police (ADGP) for Law and Order, R. Hitendra, has arrived in Mangaluru and is monitoring the situation.
Incidents of stone-pelting on buses and assaults on innocent youths have also been reported from various parts of the city.
With the suspension of bus services, passengers at the KSRTC bus stand in the city have been left in distress. Students who had arrived from Mulki, Udupi, and Kundapura for college are unable to return home, as colleges have also been closed due to the bandh.
