A bandh sponsored by the Opposition parties in Tamil Nadu to protest against the Union government’s failure to form a Cauvery management board began on Thursday.

Since last week, protests, fasts and demonstrations are being held in the State against the Centre’s failure to set up a Cauvery board. The Opposition alleges that the AIADMK government in Tamil Nadu has failed to exert pressure on the Central government to constitute a board.
