During the observance of the Bharat Bandh, Cuttack Congress president Mohammed Moquim enjoyed cricket with many party workers on the deserted road at Badambadi here.
While movement of vehicles had come to a grinding halt in the city owing to road blockade at various junctions including Badambadi, Moquim along with Congress workers turned the road into a cricket pitch as he took a bat and faced several deliveries on the street.
The party workers, who turned fielders, were seen cheering for Moquim after his shots. “Badambadi Chhak was completely deserted today and we took the opportunity to play cricket here. The Congress will remain not out in this cricket match,” said an evidently happy Moquim.
