What is Bharat Bandh?

In India, a Bharat Bandh is often known as a nationwide shutdown. It is a common form of civil disobedience used to express opposition to laws or policies made by the government. It involves different segments of society giving up their jobs or other activities voluntarily, which causes a temporary halt to normal life.
