AB Party expresses solidarity with RMG workers, demands Tk 25,000 as salary

Amar Bangladesh Party, AB Party has expressed solidarity with the RMG workers who have been protesting for over a week demanding wage hike and improvement in working conditions.

Their solidarity was expressed at a media briefing at the party office in Bijaynagar on Wednesday evening.

Joint coordinator Abdul Wahab Minar, lawyer Tajul Islam and joint member secretary Asaduzzaman Fuad also spoke at the briefing.

82 percent of our export earnings come from the RMG sector, yet millions of workers, mostly women and girls, are grossly underpaid, Minar said.

“We express our solidarity with the workers protesting for better wages and better working conditions. We demand that the minimum living wage should be Tk 25,000 per month in view of the high cost of living,” he said.
