Bengaluru: More than a hundred history-sheeters were detained in the wake of a Karnataka bandh called by pro-Kannada organisations on Saturday, according to the DCP (West), Bengaluru.
The bandh was called by pro-Kannada organisations, led by Vatal Nagraj group, against the state government’s decision to form a Maratha Development Authority and allot it Rs 50 crore.
Meanwhile, people seemed cautious to step outside with metro stations wearing deserted looks in Bengaluru.
Yesterday, Karnataka Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa had appealed to the groups not to call the bandh as it caused inconveniences to others.
“I promise to take all sections of society together,” Yediyurappa said.
