Bangla Bandh - Day 2 & Sarkar Raj

Day 2 of the Oil increase drama was the same as Day 1. Train Service disrupted, No Buses, No Taxis, Flights were delayed but they took off (unlike Day 1).



At the end nothing happened. No one gained. Not a paisa was decreased from the price hike of the 3 products.



What was significant that unlike other bandhs that are called by the opposition party where in the state govt responds with additional State buses on the roads, today there was not a single state bus plying. Even taxi's stayed off the road. Auto's were the only mode taking passengers from one point to another.



And I manged to go to office after changing 2 auto's, waiting for an hour and then taking the metro which had very less passengers.



In the evening saw "Sarkar Raj" where we had to stand in the que for 40 minutes for the tickets, which I thought I was doing after 7-8 years. Dont remember ever standing in a que in a multiplex for tickets. The movie was Ok, worth watching once. I like the 1st one better.



A request - Friends reading this pls comment.



Happy Weekend.
