Mohakhali Road Blocked by Transport Workers, Traffic Comes to a Standstill

Bangla Press Desk: Transport workers have blocked the road outside the Mohakhali Bus Terminal in Dhaka, bringing traffic to a standstill in both directions and causing severe congestion across the area.

Police Sergeant Belal Hossain, who was on duty in Mohakhali, said the workers had shut both sides of the road in front of the terminal on Thursday.

“The workers have blocked both sides of the road in front of Mohakhali terminal, causing severe traffic congestion across the area,” he said.

Police could not immediately say what demands the workers were pressing.

The protest comes after police recently began moving idle buses from Mohakhali to Purbachal, a step that has drawn discontent from bus owners and workers.
