Karnataka bandh LIVE: Stones pelted on Tirupati-Mangaluru bus; cab services likely to be affected

Pro-Kannada outfits have called for a bandh in Karnataka today (13th February) due to which normal life is likely to be disrupted in the state. The bandh will reportedly be in effect from 6 am to 6 pm on Thursday. The Kannada outfits, through the bandh, are demanding the implementation of over three-decades-old report of a committee on providing more jobs for Kannadiga youths in the government and the private sectors. Meanwhile, Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa has appealed to the organisations not to cause any inconvenience to the general public as he asserted his government was always pro-Kannada.
