who loves "bandh"?

Hyderabadis are now terrorised with the word "Bandh". Now a days every other day there is bandh or rallies happening. It has become common these days for political parties to call for bandhs and rallies. These agitations instead of helping for the cause actually have negative impact on the subject for which it is called for. Take T-Cause, almost an academic year of the students in A.P especially in Hyderabad is virtually lost and repeated bandh calls only increase hatred than sympathy. Apart from visible damage to properties, it indirectly affects the economy of the region or state where such agitations are held. Imagine a person has to travel to another place for attending an interview or writing an academic exam or visiting a marraige or even hospital will not be possible due to this. The person/people who lost their golden opportunities because of bandh will only curse the system and the organisers. Recently the Honorable High court has held that wherever properties are damaged or destroyed by people in support of the strike, the amounts to the extent of the damage done should be collected from such people who were directly involved and from the political parties who called for it. It is indeed an excellent direction by the Honorable court. The impact of recent bandhs in A.P was that the state transportation has hiked all the fares including the basic fares of city travel. Who is the loser and who is the gainer? Our country is known for Non-violence and there are several methods to show our protest. Only people who enjoy bandh will be school kids so that they can play all around.

There were news paper reports that in vijayawada and other places where the bandh call was continuous for certain period, Relatives of the dead in the hospital were unable to collect the dead bodies and mortuaries were full with such bodies due to lack of transportation. If Telangana is formed, there will be no other state in South which will have two states with same linguistic except Hindi speaking northern states. I am born and brought up in Hyderabad and i am supporting the cause of telangana. I personally feel Telangana is certainly neglected and exploited and the best way of undoing it is having two seperate assemblies within hyderabad like the singapore model. The local body will be specific for Telangana development and the general assembly for entire A.P. This way the collective bargaining power of Andhra pradesh is still retained and the cause of Telangana is also met. A fight between the brothers is advantage for the outsider.
