Well said...but i dont think it can applied universally. Its best suited if the employees of a company are aggrieved and they want to show their anger(in a peaceful and constructive way). But how can you convey your message to the deaf ears of the admin by working extra hours (whether we have the guts or not ,that's a topic for another hot discussion and I dont want to comment on that :))? Even Mahatma Gandhiji took out non-alignment movement against the British admin. Is it not a strike? Didn't the people who were not part of the movement feel irritated? My opinion: if you want to convey your message to some deaf ears, you need to yell, but that doesn't mean you need to resort to violence. if you are a part of it you will see its necessity, if are neutral you will feel irritated and if you are against it you will oppose. that's a normal human behaviour :)

You have broken the thread....Everyone Please note this is the thread on last page:
----- One should make use of the oppertunity provided to them....the case was with tribunal for over 16 years....representatives of this state should have yelled there....and now the right way is to file a review petition (which is already being done) and present strong arguments in front of the tribunal and yell there as much as you can....not by calling for bandh and blocking TV channels and disrupting normal life of people....isn't it affecting business and daily wage worker. Is this affecting the ecomnomy....what are you going to get by stopping trains? you will find only normal citizen sufferring...etc etc....i can go on and on.....if you like....
MIND YOU ..... I am not a tamilian .... but i am strictly against any sort of SO Called BANDH.
This is what is MY OPINION!! Got it?
Simple Example: If you have problem with your neighbour house, do you close down your own house, break your own property and ask your home-mates not to go outside and don't work? I think the answer is NO...then why this bandh in your own city and state....are we not troubling our own people in the state.
Why don't you go and get the neighbour state closed by calling bandh there?
Are you or your bandh organizers going to feed the daily wage worker for this (bandh) day?

Yes. No one for any reason should fight for their cause WITHOUT AFFECTING OTHERS. That is common sense. People who try to trouble others by protesting in public places and who call for bandh should be arrested and out in jail for atleast 1 year.
We should teach leason to these kind of people (let it be Tamiian, Kanadiga, north indian, etc). But, these dirty poilitians will never do that for their own cause to get milage out of every issue for their next elections.
See, kumaraswamy is putting the ball in center's court. So that congress will be in pressure.
He should go and take the next steps with Tribual which he WILL NOT do that for SURE. Dirty politians everywhere (both in TN and KA, or anywhere).
