Bengaluru, May 27: B.S. Yeddyurappa, Leader of the Opposition in the Legislative Assembly, who had apparently called for a state-wide bandh on Monday, now claimed that neither he nor his party called for a bandh, but they were just extending support to a voluntary bandh. 

“It’s not the BJP that had called for a bandh, but it’s only supporting a voluntary bandh call being observed by farmers over the government not yet taking a stand on the promise of farm loan waiver,” the state BJP chief told reporters yesterday.

However, on Friday, while speaking in the House, he had threatened a bandh on Monday if the government failed to waive farm loans within 24 hours.

He even made a media statement calling on people to voluntarily close business on Monday. However, a farmers’ union while contacted said they had not given a call for bandh. In fact, they said all the three political parties were needlessly politicising the issue. 

Sources in the BJP said a decision was taken to not officially call for a bandh, but would lead agitations in all district centres on Monday and support a bandh.

“There will be a bandh and agitations across the State, except in Bengaluru as polling in R.R. Nagar Assembly segment will be held on Monday,” a senior leader said.

New Delhi, Jul 3: The aviation regulator DGCA said on Friday it was extending the suspension of scheduled international passenger flights in the country till July 31 but added that some international scheduled services on selected routes may be permitted on a case to case basis.

Scheduled international passenger flights were suspended in India on March 23 due to the coronavirus pandemic.

Modifying its June 26 circular that stated that scheduled international passenger flights will remain suspended till July 15, 2020, the regulator stated on Friday it has decided to extend the deadline to July 31, 2020.

However, international scheduled flights may be allowed on selected routes by the competent authority on a case to case basis,” said the circular by the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA).

Air India and other private domestic airlines have been operating unscheduled international repatriation flights under the Vande Bharat Mission, which was started on May 6 by the Central government.
