Battery-powered rickshaw drivers blocked a key road in Badda on Monday (January 19), demanding a ban on lithium battery-operated rickshaws.

They also warned of continued protests if their demand is not met.

The obstruction began around 9:30am near Fuji Tower, disrupting traffic along the Kuril–Rampura road and causing severe inconvenience for commuters.

Badda Police Inspector (Operations) Azharul Islam said the drivers have blocked the road over a specific demand.

“The protest has worsened traffic congestion, especially with ongoing metro rail construction. We are at the site trying to negotiate with them,” he added.
