Auto-rickshaw and auto-tempo workers have urged the government to make a special allocation for them to deal with the financial hardship caused by the ongoing general holidays.
Bangladesh Autorickshaw-Auto-tempo Transport Workers Federation (BAATWF) president Md Fulmia Bhuiyan and general secretary Md Golam Faruk, in a statement on Tuesday said, “We’ve already sent written applications to the Prime Minister’s Office, Ministry of Disaster Management and Relief Bangladesh, Ministry of Road Transport and Bridges, and Deputy Commissioner’s (DC’s) Office of Dhaka seeking help but yet to get any result.”
They made an earnest appeal to the authorities concerned to save the auto-rickshaw and auto-tempo workers and their families by providing financial help and relief materials.
