The nationwide strike today on 20th September against government approved FDI has certainly stopped the life of a common man. The effect of ‘bandh’ was noticed on roads, rails, schools, offices, market and everywhere in Udaipur.

UT reporters and photographers were on field round-the-clock covering each and every aspect of bandh. The sufferers, the protestors, the police and the apathy of this distressful day has ended but raised many points and questions for everyone of us.

These photographs are saying their own tales. All photographs are minutely edited for fine touching and posted in higher resolution.
