Bharat bandh: Trade unions' strike disrupts services in Kolkata

Trade unions representing banking and public sectors have called for a Bharat Bandh, causing disruptions in Kolkata and other parts of India. The strike has affected train services in some railway stations. Despite the West Bengal government issuing a notification instructing employees to attend work, the impact is visible in various places, including banks and the Life Insurance Corporation of India (LIC) building. Employees are demanding justice, citing nine to ten issues. While the strike's impact is not extensive in Kolkata and West Bengal, banking sector employees in various locations have called for a work stoppage for the day.
