Commuters continued to suffer for the sixth consecutive day in Dhaka city on Friday as transport workers refrained from operating buses fearing vandalism by students demanding safe road and punishment of those responsible for the death of their two fellows in a recent road crash.
The transport workers took position on the roads and staged demonstrations in the city’s Saidabad, Gabtoli, Mohakhali and Jatrabari bus terminal areas on Friday morning demanding their safety.
Many people were seen moving on foot and some taking rickshaws to reach their destinations, UNB reported.
On Sunday, Diya Khanam Mim and Abdul Karim Rajib, students of the college section of ShaheedRamizUddin School and College, were killed as a 'Jabal-e-Noor Paribahan' bus ploughed into some students in front of Kurmitola General Hospital on Airport Road.
