Besides Idukki district, the hartal would also be held in some border panchayats like Melukavu, Poonjar, Koottikkal, Thikkoyi and Thekkekkara in neighbouring Kottayam, party leaders said.
The hartal would be from 6 am to 6 pm, UDF district committee here said.
The date for expiry for the draft notification of the Western Ghats report was March 4.
