Rail communication between Dhaka and other parts of country has restored after nearly three hours of suspension due to demonstration by some temporary workers of railway at Tejgaon.
Some temporary workers of Bangladesh Railway blocked the rail tracks at Karwanbazar in Tejgaon in the capital demanding the payment of five months' unpaid wages around 10:45 am on Tuesday.
These Temporary Labour Register (TLR) workers including porters, gatekeepers (traffic/engineering), cleaners, waymen, office assistants, and waiting room caretakers are employed on a daily basis.
Joynal Abedin, Officer-in-Charge of Dhaka Railway Police Station, said the blockade was lifted at 12:50 pm and then the train services resumed.
