Commuters in Sylhet have been suffering since Friday morning as long-distance bus service was suspended in the city a day before the transport strike ahead of Bangladesh Nationalist Party’s (BNP) divisional rally on Saturday.
Transport owners and labor organisations called a strike on Saturday in Sylhet. However, bus service has almost stopped since Friday. Especially long-distance buses are not leaving from Sylhet.
Bus owners say that since the transport strike has started in Habiganj and Moulvibazar from today, long-distance buses are not able to ply in and out of Sylhet city.
However, they said that buses are plying within the district.
