Protesters, including students and locals, once again blocked the Barishal–Kuakata Highway on Sunday, demanding an end to mismanagement in the healthcare sector, particularly at Sher-e-Bangla Medical College and other public hospitals nationwide. Gathering in Nothullabad, demonstrators accused hospital syndicates of depriving ordinary citizens of proper treatment, leading to harassment and suffering for patients and their families. They vowed to continue the Barishal blockade until irregularities in the health sector are addressed. The protest has now entered its 14th day, with no visible action from authorities.
