Outsourcing workers block Shahbagh for job nationalisation

Outsourcing employees of government institutions blocked Shahbagh intersection in Dhaka on Saturday morning demanding nationalisation of their jobs.

Several hundred employees gathered at Shahbagh around 10:00am, halting traffic movement in the surrounding areas.

Many passengers were seen getting off the buses and started walking to reach their destinations, witnesses said.

A protester said "Our one-point demand is nationalisation of our jobs. We will continue our protest until our demand is met."
