The economic turmoil in 1967 led to escalating prices, triggering public discontent. Citizens voiced their concerns through protests against elevated costs of essential goods, food scarcity, rising unemployment, and the overall economic state of the nation. This period also saw frequent occurrences of bandhs (strikes) and hartals (shutdowns) across the country. The government regarded these protests as issues of law and order rather than reflections of people's grievances, inadvertently intensifying public resentment and magnifying widespread unrest. |
