As a "virtual bandh" is being observed in Tamil Nadu on Monday despite the Supreme Court's stay, the opposition AIADMK made a special mention before the Madras High Court with regard to "violation of the apex court order."
AIADMK legal advisor N Jothi, MP, made the mention before a bench, comprising Chief Justice A P Shah and Justice P Jyothimani, that the government did not operate public transport, despite the apex court order.
They had also engaged goondas to threaten shop owners and commercial establishments to down their shutters, he said.
