Tamil Nadu farmers are striking today to press the Centre to rein in Karnataka from going ahead with its plan build a dam across the Cauvery River at Mekedatu and to urge it to set up the Cauvery Management Board and the Cauvery Water Regulatory Authority.
The bandh has been supported by retailers, traders and opposition-backed transport corporation unions. It began with flash protests by an outfit supporting the bandh here.
Metropolitan Transport Corporation (MTC) will operate its entire fleet.
Banks will function as usual on Saturday. Train services will not be affected.
