A bandh called by NRFM in Imphal has disrupted routine activities, affecting traffic and public services, reports the Imphal Times.
Imphal, Manipur – A bandh organized by the NRFM has thrown the city’s daily routine into disarray, according to the Imphal Times. The shutdown led to noticeable interruptions in traffic flow, with many roads experiencing congestion and some public transport services being temporarily halted.
Local businesses reported reduced footfall as shoppers stayed away from market areas during the bandh. Essential services such as banks and government offices also saw limited operations, contributing to the overall slowdown of civic life.
Authorities have urged residents to remain calm and avoid non-essential travel until normalcy returns. The NRFM has not yet issued a statement explaining the reasons behind the bandh, and officials are monitoring the situation closely.
The Imphal Times will continue to update readers as more information becomes available on the impact and duration of the bandh.
