Business establishments, educational institutions, offices, banks remained closed, while vehicles kept off the roads, official sources said.

Train services, however, remained unaffected by the bandh which began from 5 am.

The bandh was called by the BJP district unit demanding among others peace talks with both factions of militant outfits Dima Halam Daogah and DHD-Jewel and restoration of the NC Hills Autonomous Council.
