The umbrella organsation of Kannada and farmers' outfits 'Kannada Okkoota' has called for a bandh in Karnatakatoday to oppose the release of Cauverywater to Tamil Nadu.
A bandh has been called for in Bengaluru by the Federation of the Karnataka State Private Transport Associations, resulting in the potential unavailability of private transport services, including autos, taxis, and buses. This may cause inconvenience for school students and office-goers. Some schools have declared a holiday, and travelers to the airport may need to find alternative means of transportation.
