Angul: The Lawyers’ association observed a 12-hour bandh in the town on Tuesday demanding the establishment of sub judge court and protesting the relocation of a sub-jail in Pallahada town of Angul district.
While shops and other business establishments remained closed due to the bandh observation which started at around 6 am in the morning, streets wore a deserted look due to picketing by lawyers.
The lawyers’ association has appealed to the people to overwhelmingly support the bandh to make it a success for the entire region’s benefit.
An excellent arrangement of the police force was also made during the bandh observation to keep untoward incidents at bay.
