The Federation of Bangladesh Chambers of Commerce and Industry (FBCCI) will form a human chain today with hoisting white flags, urging political parties to reach a consensus for resolving the ongoing political deadlock ahead of the general election.
The demonstration will be held in front of the Federation Bhaban and other trade chambers and associations across the country from 11:30 am to mid-day.
The programme is aimed at protesting the ongoing political violence, shutdowns, blockades that caused damages to business, and bringing peach in the country.
FBCCI President Kazi Akram Uddin Ahmed in a statement yesterday urged the people, including the business leaders, to participate the human chain programme to protest the arson and vandalism of business organisations and infrastructures.
The country witnessed countrywide blockades and hartals due to political confrontation over the upcoming general election.
On December 7, Bangladesh Garment Manufacturers and Exporters Association (BGMEA) had formed a human chain, protesting the ongoing political violence.
The businessmen had threatened to besiege the offices of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina and opposition leader Khaleda Zia if they do not take appropriate steps soon to resolve the prevailing political gridlock.
