Lucknow:
In Lucknow, BJP leaders Arun Jaitley and Muqtar Abbas Naqvi have courted arrest after a lathicharge on party workers outside the party's office.
Hundreds of BJP protesters had gathered in support of the nation-wide bandh against rise in prices.
There were reports of a lathicharge on Samajwadi Party workers outside their party office too as the Mayawati government came down heavily on protesters. Mayawati's Bahujan Samaj Party is not supporting the bandh.
