State transport buses were off the roads and several business establishments remained shut in Krishna district, a report from Vijayawada said.
Coastal Andhra and Rayalaseema regions have been witnessing a wave of protests ever since the Congress Working Committee gave its nod to the formation of separate Telangana.
