Rajshahi Division Motor Workers’ Union General Secretary Kamal Hossain Robi said that the strike, supposed to start from Monday, had been postponed as the home minister called a meeting with workers’ leaders the same day.

They will decide on their next step after that meeting, said Robi.

At a press briefing on Saturday, Transport Workers’ Federation’s Rajshahi Division chapter President Abdul Latif Mandal announced the strike starting from Monday morning.
