 "Jallikattu protest")
What started as a protest by a group of people in Madurai five days ago is now turning to be one of the biggest apolitical movements Tamil Nadu has ever seen in its history.
On Friday, normal life across the state was hit as transporters, retail shopkeepers, film fraternity and movie theatre owners decided to shut shop for 12 hours, starting 6 am.
The move marked their support for students and youngsters protesting against the ban on Jallikattu, the bull taming sport held every January during the traditional festival of Pongal. The protesters also want a ban on animal rights
