Residents of Barisal city yesterday blocked the road from Amanatganj Water Tank area to Mahabaj Shafi Miar Pul, demanding completion of repair works of the city roads.
Ebaidul Huq, one of the residents of the area, said the roads remained under repair works since the city corporation election was held on June 15, 2013, causing immense sufferings to the commuters and many accidents in the area.
The agitators also held a sit-in programme and warned that if steps to complete the repair works were not taken within next four working days, they would go for tougher movement.
Mainul Huq and Yunus Mia, two ward councillors of Barisal city, said they would talk to the mayor regarding the public demands.
