To Bandh or not to Bandh

Doesn't it feel good when you hear about a bandh in the evening of a day somewhere in between a week? And what's good about it is that it's usually declared well before two days of it's scheduled execution. People make plans, such big plans which they found were very difficult to do in two consecutive holidays. People fill the fuel tanks of their vehicles to the maximum, and funny enough, plan to go out on the day of the bandh. People also, and most importantly, thank the guy who was mainly responsible for the bandh call, and god forbid, if he has enough support, he is deified for a day.

Remember, all that happens when the bandh is certain.
