In a letter to President Ram Nath Kovind, the AIKSCC announced for 'Grameen Bharat Bandh' on January 8. The bandh is called as a measure of protest against farmers' distress and the policies of the government towards rural areas.

In the same way, nothing will be allowed to reach villages from cities on that day. To make this event, a success and more effective all means of transports will be made standstill, the AIKSCC added.
