A statewide bandh was observed against the state government probe into the Ankita Bhandari murder case on Sunday, with protesters demanding a CBI investigation under the supervision of a sitting Supreme Court or high court judge in the case.

Congress called this bandh a voice for justice, but the question remains: When the CBI investigation had already been recommended, what was the point of the bandh?
