Another land mine was also found along the track. As a result, Up and Down train movements in the section have been stopped. <br/><br/>AIR Kolkata correspondent reports that train services of the eastern and south-eastern railways have been affected due to squatting on rail tracks by the bandh supporters at different places. <br/><br/>According to a rough estimate by the Indian Chamber of<br/>Commerce (ICC), the total loss due to a 12-hour bandh in West Bengal would be approximately 500 crore rupees of the Gross State Domestic Product.
