An organization called Patuakhali Inter-District Bus, Minibus, Coach and Microbus Sramik Union is alleged to be attacking Kuagad at Kuakata bus stand area.

It has been seen on the ground that Kuakata bus stand near Kuakata bus stand Lagoa area with the office of an organization named 'Patua Land, Minibus, Coach and Mimobus Sramik Union' with the registration number 2511 from Khulna is constantly collecting fees from vehicles. However, receipt of subscription is also given. Many of the people are shocked to see money collected with receipts on the highway, it is like the story of Kana Raja in the land of the blind. If you want to see the constitution of the labor union, you can't show any evidence of collecting money from cars in their policies.

When asked about this from the president of the organization Md. Chagir Molla, he said, "We are collecting money according to the constitution of the district bus, minibus, coach and mimobus workers' union of the district bus, minibus, coach and mimobus workers' union. We will finally have our income statement inspected by the authorities every year.

It should be noted that thousands of local and foreign tourists come to the tourist city of Kuakata for lack of a bus terminal. The bus terminal has been awaited for a long time. μm is being conducted. However, after stopping this bus stand, first, under the control of Khulna Labor Department, a sub-committee was issued by the authority of 'Patuakhali District Road Transport, Registration, Coach and Minibus Workers' Union' at Kuakata, which is under the control of Khulna Labor Department. 2022, dated 02-08-2020.

Later in the same way the registration number 734 is dated 03-05-2023 and named as 'Patuakhali District Road Transport Workers' Union'. Besides, another sub-committee committee was given again under the name of 'Patuakhali District Road Transport Workers' Union' according to the same registration number 734, Vol.2§02, Vol.2§0, Vol.25, Vol. Thus, due to one sub-committee being given and dissolved, the activities of the workers' union of Kuakata Bus Stand became in a state of disrepair.

Finally those who were first given sub-committee have registered an organization named 'Patuakhal, E AÍšsal, E AÍšsale Minibus, Coach and Miμobus Sramik Union' directly from the Khulna Labor Department at Kuakata Bus Stand, whose reg no., Khulna- 2511, Tari7-2511 2023 Eng.

Therefore, after getting a sub-committee from Patuakhali, it was abolished again in Parvati. There are allegations that they are collecting fees on the Toakka Namah road of law with direct registration from Khulna Labor Department.

The officer in charge of Mohipur police station Md. Ferdous Alam Khan said that they were given documents by the workers' organization, I don't know about the policy of the organization, but I am reviewing the documents and will inform the higher authorities.

In this regard, Kuakata Mayor Md. Anwar Hawladar said, check whether their registration number is correct and if we are able to raise the money, we will raise it, if there is no provision, we will not raise it. However, as far as I know, there are such organizations of labor unions all over the country.
