Bengaluru: Karnataka bandh called by BS Yeddyurappa received a mixed response from the state.

It has been reported that, MP Prathap Simha in Mysuru blocked roads and stopped buses from plying.

BJP party members in some locations were seen forcefully closing down shutters of the shops, some were seen burning tyres.

Hosapete, Mangaluru, Chamarajanagar and other places have not been affected by bandh call and the movement of the vehicles is normal.

In Jamkhandi the BJP has cancelled the bandh call following the sudden demise of Congress MLA Siddu Nyamgoud.

The Bharathiya Janata Party (BJP) called for a state-wide bandh in Karnataka on Monday on May 28, if Karnataka Chief Minister HD Kumaraswamy fails to waive off farmers loans.
