Strike: rail traffic disrupted in Mumbai
Rail traffic in the city was disrupted for sometime after agitators blocked trains at two stations in response to a nationwide strike by Left-affiliated trade unions Thursday.
Trains were stopped at Andheri station at 10 am for 15 minutes and also at Goregaon station during peak office hours as protestors blocked the rail lines.
Police later removed the agitators and the services were resumed, Railway officials said.
However, trains are running behind schedule, they added.
The Left-affiliated trade unions are protesting "anti-people" economic and labour policies of the UPA government.
