Hartal is a word that is derived from the Gujarati language of India. It means the stopping of work for a certain period of time as a protest against any decision. So we can say that the main cause of calling hartal is the protest of a political party against the unjust decision of the ruling party of the country. Generally, the opposition observes a hartal day for the fulfillment of their demand. Their supporters begin picketing at different places. Students do not go to school and college. Buses, trucks, trains, and other public or private transports are stopped by the strokes. The normal life is paralyzed on a hartal day. The picketers bring out a procession in support of hartal. They set fire to the abandoned tyer and keep them on the main road. They prevent people from going to their respective work. Sometimes, they douse cars or buses with petrol and set fire to them. Very often they break the glasses of the windows of the vehicles. Because these vehicles try to move on the road. Sometimes, law enforcement agencies prevent the supporters of a hartal. Then a short fight begins between the supporters and the police. Some people may die and many others may be injured in such a skirmish. Most of the employees are not present in the office Sometimes, buses, trucks, cars and other establishments are damaged. A hartal causes a lot of economic loss to a country. So the Government and the opposition should understand the matter They should be tolerant. I think the political parties should try their best to avoid calling hartal.
