The Sakal Maratha Samaj may have called it off in some places, but the Maratha Kranti Morcha's call for a statewide bandh today will keep police and administrative officers on their toes. The Pune city and rural police have deployed 15,000 personnel as a precautionary measure keeping in mind the recent violent agitations.
Schools, colleges to be shut
Many educational institutes will be closed. The Savitribai Phule Pune University has issued a letter in which it is mentioned that the Maratha community has announced they will hold rasta and rail rokos at various places, hence the varsity will be closed today. Pune District Collector Naval Kishor Ram has said that schools and colleges will be closed today, and the headmasters should give such an order.
