Balasore Bandh cripples life
Orissa POST
|July 17, 2025
Normal life came to a grinding halt in this district Wednesday due to an eight-hour bandh called by Biju Janata Dal (BJD), the main Opposition party in the state Assembly, in protest against the death of Soumyashree Bisi, a student of FM (Autonomous) College.
The bandh, observed from 6am to 2pm, passed off peacefully with no reports of untoward incidents.
The BJD called the bandh alleging apathy and inaction by the college authorities, district administration, and political leadership, which, they claimed, led to the death of 20-year-old Soumyashree, a second-year Integrated BEd student.
Soumyashree allegedly committed self-immolation after failing to get any response to her complaints of mental and sexual harassment by assistant professor Samira Ranjan Sahu.
