Janagosthi Joutho Mancha (CJJM) to cancel the Assam bandh scheduled for
November 15 due to Adivasi hero Birsa Munda's birthday falling on that day.
Birsa Munda revolted against the British in the 18th century, according to AAS
general secretary David Horo, and the hero's birth anniversary has been
accorded the status of 'Gaurav Divas' by the Central Government. According to
him, the occasion is also observed in Assam.

November 15 should be withdrawn.
