The Greater Chattogram Goods and Public Transport Owners’ Federation has announced a 24-hour suspension of goods and public transport services on all routes across Chattogram, Cox’s Bazar, and the three hill districts on July 20. Announcing the strike at a press conference at Chattogram Press Club, the federation’s Member Secretary Md. Humayun Kabir Sohel outlined four key demands: amending anti-worker and anti-owner clauses in the Road Transport Act, suspending the economic life notification, stopping the transfer of vehicle fitness inspections to private entities, and withdrawing the increased advance income tax. The federation claims that the transport sector is suffering heavy losses due to government inaction.
