Kolkata (Calcutta, Bengal) Bandh : a day to enjoy

Kolkata-StrikeNot going into any political viewpoint, the bandh(strike) is a time to enjoy anyway. You stay at home or sleep or do what ever you like at home.

But we had to reach workplace by 5:00 AM in the morning before the bandh starts. Really annoying to wake up so early and that to when slept late at night. Never mind something needs to be ignored.

We had already faced these type of bands almost every year, don’t know who is the culprit :).

Outside office which use to be extra crowded

We reached office quite soon as all the roads were empty. We thought the bandh will be a tough one, but by the day end it was clearly of no use. We took some nap in the office, had games and lunch with friends and some work :D. Then after confirmation from the security we started back to the home in the evening. In the meantime, confirmed from our friends the latest updates for the bandh. Started back at 8:30PM, though found less traffic but more police which was a surprise in Kolkata.

Kolkata Bandh not so tuff

The day was calm and full of fun, free snacks, breakfast, lunch and bed facility in office 😀 but eyes are still burning and feeling to sleep. But just to give some tips for any Bandh:-

  • If possible stay back at home and enjoy movies with friends and family.
  • Do all the snacks and food shopping a day or two in advance.
  • Keep yourself updated of any news.

And Enjoy ! Good Night friends.
