In order to end the ongoing labour unrest of the workers of Beximco factories centring unpaid October wages, the interim government is set to provide loans to the company through the labour ministry and finance division. 

In a notice over the loans signed by labour ministry Secretary AHM Shafiquzzaman issued today (19 November), he also urged the workers to join work immediately.

The secretary further directed all factories of the company in the Ashulia-Chandra area to resume production normally.

They resumed their blockade on the highway at around 10am, after calling off the fourth day's protests late last night.
