Bharat Bandh Today LIVE Updates: Today, July 9, a nationwide strike is set to take place as a protest against what is being termed as the Central Government's 'anti-worker, anti-farmer, and pro-corporate policies.' An estimated 25 crore public service employees are anticipated to participate in this Bharat Bandh across the nation. This strike has been organized by a coalition of ten trade unions, which have accused government departments of obstructing the country's growth amid a persistent unemployment crisis.
Workers from various sectors, including banking and insurance, rural and agricultural unions (Samyukta Kisan Morcha), postal services, state transport, coal mining, and manufacturing, are expected to join the strike. As a result, services in banks, postal operations, public transport, coal, and steel production may face significant disruptions, although schools, colleges, and private businesses are likely to remain open.
The unions have voiced their concerns regarding job security in light of privatization, the government's disregard for their 17-point charter, and new labor regulations. Residents should anticipate transportation delays today and are encouraged to verify their travel schedules in advance.
