Indo-Myanmar border trade has also been severely affected due to the ongoing bandh.
Speaking to media persons General Secretary  of Thadou Students Association, Chandel/Tengnoupal Branch,  Lelen Haokip said that negligence to the demand of the tribal students prompted the students to support the bandh called as it is a genuine issue. He said the bandh will continue until the demand are fulfilled.
