Autorickshaw drivers take to the streets

Battery-run rickshaw drivers blocked roads in the capital’s Dayaganj and Kajla to protest against the High Court decision banning the vehicles from the Dhaka metropolitan area on Wednesday, Nov 20, 2024, causing a massive traffic congestion in the region at that time.
