The countrywide dawn-to-dusk hartal, enforced by Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) and Bangladesh Jamaat-e-islami, is underway on Sunday.
The movement of public transport and cars were normal in different parts of the capital in the morning.
Police were deployed in front of the BNP’s Naya Paltan central office in the morning. Police were seen cordoning off a side of the BNP office.
However, Dhaka Road Transport Owner Association said in a press release on Saturday night that movement of buses and minibuses would continue in Dhaka city, district towns and on inter-district routes.
BNP called the hartal protesting the attacks on its grand rally in Naya Paltan on Saturday.
Jamaat also enforced the hartal protesting the arrests of the party leaders and activists.
