All non-essential shops and services will remain shut across Maharashtra on Monday as the state government has announced a bandh or strike in support of farmers. This comes a week after eight people, including four farmers, had died in violence in Uttar Pradesh's Lakhimpur Kheri during a farmers' protest. The Mumbai Police has made arrangements for the strike and will deploy officials at strategic points.
