Bandishen zyada tar Savar, Ashulia aur Gazipur mein hain, jo mulk ke ahem garment markaz hain.

Hafte ko Ashulia mein bhi darjanon mazeed factories band rahin.
Malikon ki do bari tanzeemon, Bangladesh Garment Manufacturers and Exporters Association (BGMEA) aur Bangladesh Knitwear Manufacturers and Exporters Association (BKMEA), ne hafte ko kaha ke jo factories badamni ki wajah se paidawar nahi kar pa rahin woh itwar se ghair mueyyana muddat ke liye band rahengi. Unhon ne Labour Act ki dafa 13(1) ka hawala diya, jo malikon ko ghair qanooni hartal ki surat mein plant band karne aur hartali mazdooron ko ujrat na dene ka ikhtiyar deti hai. BGMEA ke sadar Mahmud Hasan Khan ne kaha ke tanzeemon ne sawal uthaya hai ke factories ke tahaffuz ki yaqeen dehani ke baghair ujrat ke muzakraat mein shirkat jari rakhi jaye ya nahi. Un ka kehna tha: “Agar surat-e-haal barqarar rahi to humein nazar-e-sani karni hogi.” Malikon ne aik din pehle muzakraat chhodne ki dhamki di thi.
Mazdoor mahana kam az kam 30,000 taka (taqriban 240 dollar) ujrat ka mutalba kar rahe hain, jo mojooda 12,500 taka se 140 fisad zyada hai. Un ka kehna hai ke khorak, rihaish, transport aur ilaaj ke akhrajat ne un ki aamdani kha li hai, jabke mehngai taqriban 8 fisad hai. Ehtijaj October ke aakhir mein shuru hua aur baaz auqaat purtashaddud ho gaya. Muqami reports ke mutabiq badamni ke dauran aik mazdoor jaan se gaya. Mazdooron ne Gazipur mein Dhaka-Tangail shahrah bhi taqriban aik ghante tak band rakhi, jis ke baad police ne unhein muntashir kar diya.
