Eight days after the celebration of Eid-ul-Fitr, workers of three readymade garment factories under a group of companies staged a demonstration and held a rally demanding payment of their dues, Eid bonuses, and other arrears in Gazipur this afternoon (7 April).

Workers of the TNZ factory gathered at their workplace in the Mogarkhal area of Gazipur city in the afternoon.

Expressing solidarity, workers from other factories also joined the rally and staged demonstrations.

Workers' leaders, including Md Arman Hossain, Shahin Alam, Md Shariful, and Shahidul Islam, addressed the gathering, alongside representatives from various labour organisations.

The workers said they had been protesting for the past few weeks, demanding three months of unpaid salaries ahead of Eid. Just before the festival, each worker was paid only Tk9,100, while the remaining wages and Eid bonuses remain unpaid.

They threatened that they would continue the movements until all dues are paid in full.

Recalling the role of the workers during the anti-government movement that ousted the Awami League last year, the workers' leaders said they continue to face neglect and false promises regarding salary payments.

The leaders informed that a meeting between labour representatives and officials of the Ministry of Labour is scheduled to be in Dhaka on Tuesday to discuss the issue.
