DMP Commissioner Md Asaduzzaman Mia said a third party might be influencing the workers' protests.

"Workers only demonstrated in a few areas. In most of the areas, nothing happened," he said, addressing reporters after attending an event in Mirpur at 12pm. "We will investigate whether any individual or parties are trying to use the protests to their own ends."

Legal action will be taken against such parties if found, he said.

Asaduzzaman added the government is sincere in providing a solution for the ongoing crisis. "We hope a solution will be reached within 1-2 days."

RMG workers had been protesting in different parts of Mirpur, different parts of Dhaka, Savar, and Gazipur, from January 6 till Thursday.   

Earlier, in the Kalshi and Sawrapara areas of Mirpur, workers called off their strike and removed blockades on Thursday, upon receiving assurances from owners of their demands being met.

The workers took to the streets in protest against the discrepancies of the newly-announced wage structure.  

They started their demonstrations claiming that authorities have been delaying the implementation of their demands for the past two months.
