Closing one side of the street, hawkers in Gulistan and GPO areas hold a rally in front of the Jatiya Press Club in the capital yesterday protesting the decision of the Dhaka South City Corporation to not allow any hawkers to trade in the areas using their makeshift stalls from today. The DSCC, however, would allow them to trade after office hours and during the weekends. Photo: Anisur Rahman
