-Those anti-nationals who will not work 10% the other day, would surely like to show-off diligence during bandhs.
Democracy does not come free. It is cost society has to pay. Right to strike, dissent, freedom of expression, action etc are more precious than a few thousand crores. People who do not understand the value of these rights should migrate so Saudi, Iran and other nations.

since you suggested bandh is good, you need to pick up the tab, dude. if you cannot pick up the tab, please talk to people like you and write a check collectively. while you are at it supporting bandhs, please take responsibiliy for violence, public property destruction, etc. In a democracy, citizens have far more responsibility than calling for bandh if one can't poop properly on a given day. People like you are bane on society, who support violence when convenient without taking responsibility for consequences or without any accountability. It doesn't matter what you write as response; stupid is what stuid does. First learnt to take responsibility and then we will discuss. While learning, learn what democracy is all about.

@dadaaposting- Right to strike is there in all democracies. It is a precious right to secure the interests of workers and others from whatever authority. First get those people who want to deny people the right to strike to write check for all the monies they have deposited in numbered accounts in swiss banks. If you are so concerned about money ask the government to withdraw subsidy given to Haj trips. If you are so concerned about money then first ask the judges who take half the year off to work the full year like ordinary people. That amounts to a much bigger loss than a bandh. Got it.

as long as you have head buried in your a55, no one can help. and people like you are majority in society. stop talking about all things you mentioned, they are reflection of your definition of democracy. you want all benefits of democracy without any accountability nor responsibility. if I were to task for damage to public transportation, I would ask people who damaged, probably your brain (wrapped up in hajj piligirmage subsidy) can't process beyond perimeter of your house. Politicians come from same society that you and I came from. i.e. they are representing what we wanted them to represent. If you are rally concerned about swiss banks, etc..when you vote next time..make sure you take your head of your a55 and think, then vote. idiot!
This is one of the democratic way to showing anger but joke of democracy is that ruling party also involve fully in Band, Dharna etc., to show its strength at Govt. cost.Even for vote bank politics, they declare holiday on any day, causing great difficulties to people and loss to States.
I would agree that Bandhs are not right means of protest as it disrupts life of daily wages people etc. But can anyone suggest a effective and non disruptive way of staging a protest. Media is not a way as media is a bought over by political party and not a biased medium. The only case media won was the jessica lal case. They have been shouting about price rise and sugar hoards but what is the use of it. The price is staying. So we need to find a unbiased and people oriented way of protesting and then we can say bandhs are to go away. Without finding a solution we are fretting about loss of economy for one day bandh and so what about the money spent by common man for the last few years due to unnecessary price rise

I am fuly agree with the sentence "Bandhs: Acts of terror by another name". my view is that its tradition in india to organiz "bandha". After all oppoition wants that people should notice him that he is fighting for common man. Every indian should start opposing this kind of bandh. people are very smart any they know thatbandh is not the solution and its only showcase of opposition.
