The traffic situation has eased in Delhi after the bandh ended.
According to a police official, no additional security force was deployed in Mumbai, but a decision on the deployment of extra police personnel may be taken later depending on the situation.
Congress workers, holding placards, assembled at some places like Andheri and Jogeshwari and shouted slogans against the farm bills, but other than that there was no impact of the bandh in the city so far.
Commercial establishments and local transport were operating as usual in Mumbai on Monday and the city police also did not deploy an extra security force at key junctions and roads.
Markets and shops in Delhi were open as farmers have not contacted any associations for any strike, said Brijesh Goyal, chairman of the Chamber of Trade and Industry(CTI).
"We fully support the farmers. But in view of the financial crisis faced by us due to COVID-19, we are extending our moral and in-principle support to them and their demand while working normally," said Anuj Rathor, secretary of the Rashtriya Rajdhani Kshetra Auto Drivers Association.
Autorickshaws and taxis plied normally and shops were open in the national capital on Monday, with their unions and associations extending only "in-principle support" to the Bharat Bandh called by farmers but deciding not to join the strike.
Left activists have blocked roads and railway tracks across West Bengal in support of the Bharat Bandh, while normal life remained largely unaffected in the state.
