Itanagar: The Adi Students’ Union (AdiSU) has called a 12-hour bandh in the Siang and Upper Siang districts of Arunachal Pradesh on September 22, intensifying its agitation over a series of unresolved demands it described as “legitimate and urgent.” The shutdown will be observed from 5 am to 5 pm, with exemptions for essential services and students appearing for examinations.
