The All India Trade Union Congress (AITUC) called for a Bharat Bandh on July 9 to protest against what it described as the government's anti-worker, anti-farmer, and pro-corporate policies that go against national interests. Workers from various states actively participated in the bandh, organizing political marches and demonstrations to voice their dissent. The nationwide protest disrupted several essential government services, including postal and transport services, bringing many routine operations to a standstill. The bandh aimed to draw attention to the growing discontent among the working class and farmers, who believe that current policies prioritize corporate interests over the welfare of the common people.
