On the need for a strict Legislation to end bandh/blockade culture

Any form of bandh/blockade is a stigma on the effectiveness of local governance structures and is unconstitutional. Bandh/blockade adversely affects every aspect of normal life of the people. It is quite a shame to admit that Manipur tops the chart among other Indian states in terms of bandh/blockade culture. But majority of the people do not want to discuss in length about bringing any solution to any form of bandh/blockade in Manipur. CSOs and political parties by now want to stay away from this issue while common people are clueless about why the blockade is never coming to an end. It is like watching a boring movie at a theatre where the exit doors are locked from outside. One is at his/her wit’s end but is equally helpless since there is no alternative means to leave the theatre.
