The workers went on the strike from 8:00 am to 10:00 am and they will continue this for the next four days.

Murshedul Alam, general secretary of Bangladesh Gas Fields Company Employees Union, said, "We are working at the time of this coronavirus disaster. The company's production has not been disrupted. In this situation, the decision of the management board to cancel our Eid-ul-Adha bonus is inhumane. We demand the cancellation of this decision. If our demands are not met within the next four days, we will call for a strong movement in all the gas fields under Bangladesh Gas Fields Company Ltd."
