Commuters suffer in city as public buses go off streets

 

Dhaka, Aug 3 (Just News): People continued to suffer for the 6th consecutive day in the capital 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.

On Sunday, Diya Khanam Mim and Abdul Karim Rajib, students of the college section of Shaheed Ramiz Uddin School and College, were killed as a 'Jabal-e-Noor Paribahan' bus ploughed through some students in front of Kurmitola General Hospital on Airport Road.
