DCCI demands withdrawal of July 3 hartal

Dhaka Chamber of Commerce and Industry has urged the National Committee to Protect Oil, Gas, Mineral Resources, Power and Ports to withdraw its call for half-day hartal on July 3.

In a statement signed by its secretary Mustafa Mohiuddin, the business body, reiterated its previous stand on hartal saying such programme would aggravate the country's economy especially the industrialisation process for want of gas and energy.

'Such initiatives of gas exploration should be encouraged after ensuring that the interest of Bangladesh is adequately protected,' the statement said.
