Garment workers and trade unions in Bangladesh are demanding better pay in line with the rising cost of living and high inflation.
This comes at a tense time for the industry, after a union leader was killed last month while protesting for unpaid wages.
The country is the second largest exporter of ready-made clothes in the world, employing mostly women.
Al Jazeera’s Tanvir Chowdhury reports from Savar Industrial area, Bangladesh.
