CAPITAL NEWS | APIYO Bandh Ground Report

In Arunachal Pradesh, it has become customary for the government to declare bandh calls illegal and appeal to the public to maintain normalcy. However, a recurring question remains unanswered: if bandh calls are unlawful and citizens are expected to ignore them, why do government offices across the state often witness poor attendance or operate with a skeletal workforce whenever a bandh is called?

This pattern is not limited to any single bandh but has been observed repeatedly over the years. While the government urges the public to carry on with their daily activities, the functioning of its own offices frequently appears affected. Such situations raise legitimate concerns about the effectiveness of official directives and the government’s ability to ensure normal administrative operations during bandh periods.

If the message is that bandh calls should not disrupt public life, should the government not lead by example by ensuring full attendance and uninterrupted services in all departments? Until then, questions will continue to be raised about the gap between official statements and the reality on the ground.

Identity cannot be protected through selective outrage, communal targeting, or symbolic bandhs. As an indigenous youth, this conversation is bigger than politics β€” it is about demographic concerns, legal accountability, cultural preservation, and the future of our indigenous roots.

From ILP loopholes and structural governance to the deeper question of how Donyi Polo itself is evolving β€” this is a discussion that demands maturity, logic, and honest introspection.
