A total of 44 flights were cancelled to and from Kempegowda International Airport Bengaluru (Bengaluru Airport) in view of the statewide bandh called by the pro-Kannada outfits over the Cauvery water issue on Friday (September 29).

According to sources, out of the 44 flights, 22 were inbound while the remaining were outbound. Several flights were scheduled to come in from Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata and Mangaluru, among other locations. 

A pro-Kannada and farmers' organisations have called for a 'Karnataka Bandh' today to protest the release of Cauvery river water to neighbouring Tamil Nadu. Section 144 has been imposed in several parts of the state in view of the bandh. The bandh will be in place from 6 am to 6 pm.

According to the sources, a majority of the flights that were cancelled were operated by IndiGo.

They advised passengers to follow alerts from respective airlines, law enforcement agencies and media releases for further updates.

“Due to the one-day Karnataka bandh called by various unions and organisations on September 29, 2023, we anticipate disruption in transport services. Passengers are advised to plan their travel to and from the airport accordingly. Passengers are requested to follow alerts from respective airlines, law enforcement agencies and media releases for further updates,” the BLR Airport posted on X.

Protesters detained at airport

Farmers and pro-Kannada organisations held protests outside the airport. A group representing pro-Kannada organizations assembled near the arrival gate of Kempegowda International Airport to express their opposition to the Cauvery water dispute. They started raising slogans following which they were taken into preventive detention by the Bengaluru Police.

Karnataka Bandh

Normal life was affected, especially in the southern part of the state, with pro-Kannada and farmers’ organisations calling for a bandh in the state. Kannada Okkuta includes factions of Karnataka Rakshana Vedike, Kannada Chalavali (Vatal Paksha) and various farmers’ bodies that have given a call for the statewide dawn-to-dusk shutdown.

The opposition BJP and JDS have extended their support to the bandh, as well as hotels, autorickshaws and hail riders associations in Karnataka.
