K'taka bandh: Stones pelted on Tirupati-Mangaluru bus in Farangipet

Miscreants on Thursday pelted stones on a Tirupati-Mangaluru bus in Farangipet here following the Karnataka bandh called by pro-Kannada activists today.

Several pro-Kannada groups have called for Karnataka bandh demanding the implementation of Sarojini Mahishi report which recommended a certain percentage of jobs to Kannadigas in private and public sector companies.

In view of the bandh, Bangalore University has postponed all post-graduate examinations scheduled for today.

Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa has urged the pro-Kannada organisations to call off the bandh.
