The 24-hour nationwide trade union strike called on Thursday by ten central trade unions evoked a mixed response in the Northeastern states.
According to officials, train and flight services in most northeastern states remained unaffected by the shutdown.
Shops and markets were closed in some places but were open in some sub-divisions.
Most private and passenger vehicles remained off the roads.
Some hooligans attacked the headquarters of the Communist Party of India, the Centre of Indian Trade Unions, Socialist Unity Centre of India in Agartala and damaged the properties in different places of Tripura.
“Ruling BJP supporters attacked the CITU office in Agartala and damaged the assets in the presence of the police,” CITU Tripura unit President and former minister Manik Dey told reporters.
