Kanpur, Aug 09: The day-long bandh called by a traders body to protest frequent power cuts in the industrial city evoked partial response today. Traders held demonstrations and burnt the effigies of Uttar Pradesh power minister at various places to protest frequent power cuts, police said. Trading activities were adversely affected as shops and business establishments remained closed in most parts of the city, a spokesman of the Kanpur Udyog Vyapar Mandal claimed. However, former BJP MLA and president of the Uttar Pradesh Udyog Vyapar Mandal claimed that the bandh evoked minimal response as a majority of the traders had not responded to the bandh call.
