Bharat Bandh Tomorrow: Farmers protesting recently enacted farming laws called for a peaceful nationwide lockdown, or "Bharat Bandh", on December 8, one day before their sixth meeting with the central government to lobby in support of their demands.

New Delhi:

 Amid growing support from unions and opposition parties for tomorrow's "Bharat Bandah" call, some services in Delhi - now the center of farmers' protests - and the rest of the country could be affected. Farmers called for a nationwide "peaceful" lockdown on December 8, a day before the sixth round of talks with the government to repeal controversial farming laws. "The protest is to show that we do not support some government policies," Bharatiya Federation spokesman Kisan Rakesh Tikit said. The farmers repeated that they would not make room for any political party and said their protest was "peaceful and will continue as such." Nevertheless, the center has issued a nationwide advisory proposing "tight security measures" for "peace" and ensuring that Covid-19 guidelines are followed.

Here is a list of all the things you need to know about Bharat Bandah:

    1. The Institute of Chartered Accountants of India has rescheduled the CPA Exam 1 paper to December 13th which was scheduled for tomorrow. The issued access cards will remain valid; Candidates are advised to keep checking the site.

    2. In Delhi, there may be a shortage of fruits and vegetables. “Most of our merchants support the Bharat Bandh call. Consequently, Mandis in Ghazipur, Okhla and Narela will be severely affected,” said Adil Ahmed Khan, Chairman of Azadpur Mandi - the largest wholesale market in Asia.

    3. In Maharashtra, the Fashi Agricultural Market Committee will be closed tomorrow. This is likely to affect the supply of fruits and vegetables in Mumbai, where taxis, taxis and buses operate normally. Patrols will be conducted in Mumbai "so that there is no untoward accident."

    4. Travelers in Delhi and Tamil Nadu may face problems because some taxi and taxi unions, including those associated with app collectors, have decided to support the closure. But unions said cars and those that provide connectivity for the last mile will continue to operate. The government said the arrangements were to ensure that people could easily navigate the bandwidth.

    5. A number of bank unions called for a black gang protest to show support to farmers, but this is unlikely to affect banking services.

    6. Supply truck traffic could be affected in many states as all auto transport unions in India have come out to support farmers. They will organize peaceful demonstrations and try to present a memorandum to the collectors and district commissioners to resolve the issues "amicably and with the consent of the farmers as soon as possible".

    7. Harender Singh Lakwal, Secretary-General of the Bharatiya Kisan Federation said earlier that farmers' union members would block national highways and occupy traffic squares.

    8. Farmers urged people to provide their support in a non-violent way and said that their protest was not aimed at "causing problems for the common man." “Tomorrow is Bharat Bandah from 11 a.m. until 3 p.m. It is a symbolic protest. We will start at 11 a.m. so everyone can get to the office on time… Services like ambulances, even weddings can continue.” Rakesh Tikkit said, Spokesman for the Bharatiya Kisan Federation. "

    9- Bandah is likely to have the best in Punjab, which has given its full support. The sit-in protests, some by opposition parties supporting farmers, were likely in Delhi, Karnataka, Maharashtra, West Bengal, Telanaga, and the northeastern states of Tripura and Assam, among others. This could potentially lead to traffic congestion, and states are due to issue travel warnings.
