Khulna's fuel traders have issued a stern warning of launching an indefinite strike starting September 3 if their three-point demands, including an increase in sales commission, are not met by August 31.

Abdul Gaffar Biswas, president of the Khulna District Petrol Pump Owners Association, made this announcement after a meeting held with fuel traders in the New Market area of Khulna city on Wednesday evening.

Besides raising sales commission, the other demands are setting the tank-lorry economic life to 50 years and issuing a gazette notification as per the pledges.

Abdul Gaffar said they have placed their three-point demand several times but the government did not pay heed. That’s why the fuel traders decided to go for an indefinite strike from September 3.
