Pedestrians suffer due to transport shutdown

The protesters are throwing bricks and stones from railway tracks at the army and police as they try to remove the auto rickshaw drivers who are protesting by blocking the road in protest of the High Court's verdict to ban auto rickshaws. In this situation, people of all classes and professions are suffering. As a result, they have to walk to their destinations.

On Thursday (November 21), it was seen on the spot that vehicle traffic is stopped in various areas from Malibagh Flyover to Rampura Bridge, Mohakhali, Agargaon, Mohammadpur and more. Battery-powered rickshaw drivers are blocking the road junctions in these areas.

The pedestrians said that since there is no vehicle traffic, they are walking to their destinations. They also want relief from the suffering of these protests and blockades.

Meanwhile, the protesters are throwing bricks and stones from railway tracks at the army and police as they try to remove the auto rickshaw drivers who are protesting by blocking the road in protest of the High Court's verdict to ban auto rickshaws. This situation arose at 11:40 am on Thursday when a group of army personnel tried to remove the protesters from Mohakhali.

At that time, the army first chased and removed the protesting auto rickshaw drivers. Shortly after, the protesters, who first moved from the direction of Mohakhali and then over the Tejgaon railway line started throwing bricks and stones at the railway line.

At one point, the army and police retreated after the protesters suddenly attacked them, and the protesters continued to chase them until they reached the Rawa Complex.

At that time, the auto rickshaw drivers attacked and vandalized the SKS Tower with rods and various sticks.
