A two-day bandh called by the CPI(Maoist) affected normal life in three police station areas of Jharkhand’s Palamu district on Friday, an officer said. Many shops remained shut and few public transport vehicles were visible on the roads in areas under Hariharganj, Pipra and Naudiha police stations. The bandh, beginning Friday, has been called by the CPI(Maoist) to protest a recent police encounter in which five Maoists were killed, a senior police officer said.
