Workers' strike at different ghats of Karnaphuli River continued for the second day yesterday. Around 3,000 workers began an indefinite strike and refrained from unloading of imported goods, mostly essential commodities, from lighter vessels anchored at 16 ghats along the Karnaphuli river on Tuesday morning demanding pay hike.However, unloading of cargoes from 26 vessels out of 36 at the outer anchorage was done yesterday. Water Transport Co-ordination Cell (WTCC) Secretary Commodore (retd) AZ Nizam said the strike had no impact on the unloading of cargoes at the outer anchorage.A scheduled meeting between workers and contractors to resolve the issue could not be held yesterday morning, as contractors did not participate in it, sources said. Abdul Khaleque, general secretary of Chittagong Ghat and Godown Workers Union, said they joined the meeting and waited for the leaders of the contractors but no one came.
