Trade bodies stationed volunteers strategically to ensure smooth and peaceful observance of the shutdown.
Shops were closed and transport vehicles remained off the roads in a 12-hour shutdown called by trade bodies across Nagaland on Thursday over alleged illegal taxation by Naga political groups and government agencies.
The bandh that began at 6am was called by the Confederation of Nagaland Chamber of Commerce and Industry (CNCCI). The Dimapur Chamber of Commerce and Industry (DCCI) imposed it in the district.
The shutdown has been complete in not only major cities like Kohima, Dimapur and Mokokchung, but even smaller towns such as Tuli, Jalukie, Pfutsero, CNCCI president Khekugha Muru told PTI.
