New Market:Just a day after an eviction drive aimed at clearing illegal encroachments, hawkers have returned to the footpaths and roadside areas in the capital's New Market, re-establishing their shops.
According to United News of Bangladesh, the situation underscores the ongoing challenge of maintaining pedestrian access in bustling commercial areas, where hawkers frequently return soon after being evicted.
