“This call is not a political stunt. We are doing this to get justice for those who lost their lives. And I am confident people will come forward voluntarily and keep their establishments shut. Our workers will visit markets tomorrow to urge shopkeepers to observe a bandh. There will be no use of force. We will only request them (to observe shutdown) with folded hands,” insisted the Rajya Sabha MP.
