The Telangana bandh called by the JAC on Wednesday took a heavy toll on Aksharabhyasam, the ritual of auspicious beginning of learning for children, at the Basara Saraswati temple, on the occasion of Vasantha Panchami. Thousands of devotees from all parts of Andhra Pradesh and neighbouring states faced difficulties as the APSRTC stopped bus services to Basara from all parts of the state as a “precautionary reaction” to the bandh. Many passengers were stranded in bus stations in Secunderabad and Hyderabad since midnight on Tuesday.
