All Shops, business establishments, offices, and banks are closed in Assam after a 12-hour bandh in Dibrugarh and Tinsukia districts called by Moran and Motok organisations demanding ST status for the two communities. The protests have brought life to a standstill on Monday as thousands of agitators blocked the main roads in Dibrugarh and Tinsukia towns and stopped vehicular movement along the national highways despite the district administrations promulgating prohibitory orders under Section 163 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita (BNSS) in entire districts.
