Khannabal (J&K) (PTI) A complete shutdown was observed in Anantnag and Pulwama districts of Kashmir on Monday in protest against Congress leader Rahul Gandhi's election rallies there in support of party ally National Conference's candidate from Anantnag parliamentary constituency.

Shops and business establishments, educational institutions and some of the government offices remained closed in the two south Kashmir districts in response to the call given by Chairman of hardline faction of Hurriyat Conference Syed Ali Shah Geelani.

Public and private transport also remained off the roads in the districts where tight security was in place in view of Mr. Gandhi's visit.

The mandatory report eulogizing Rahul Gandhi says the call for bandh was a total failure.

People in general ignored the strike called by hardline Hurriyat leader Syed Ali Geelani to protest against Mr. Gandhi’s visit. Though in some areas shops were closed, normal life was largely unaffected with vehicles plying on the roads, and shops and business establishments remaining open.

We, who have been following chindu for long enough, know which report to trust.
