Imphal, June 17 2013:
Except for Imphal-Churachandpur inter district route, all the vehicular movements plying between the state capital Imphal and the district headquarters came to a grinding halt on the first day of the 48-hour bandh being called by UNC in Naga areas today.
Educational institutions, shops and other business related activities remained ceased today in the district headquarters of Ukhrul, Chandel, Tamenglong and Senapati.
Inter-state public transports too did not operate following the UNC bandh which began last midnight.
However, there was no untoward incident reported anywhere due to the bandh so far.
The UNC has imposed 48 hours bandh in 'Naga areas' in Manipur in what they term as a protest against the communal policies of the government of Manipur and the communal forces in the valley.
