For the last couple of months, some former employees of GP have been gathering in front of the GPHouse, raising various demands relating to employment and benefits. To our knowledge, most of them separated from Grameenphone a long time ago and have received their lawful entitlements. Also, the demands that are being raised by these individuals are currently subject matters of various cases before the Hon'ble courts. Grameenphone has high regard for the judicial system. Therefore, any legal proceedings will eventually be resolved through the court proceedings.
While Grameenphone respects the right of peaceful association, these individuals illegally blocked the entry and exit ways of GP premises on several days. On February 25th, they attempted to block the entry and exit of GPHouse again and the police intervened to maintain law and order. It is mentionable that they did the same on February 4, 2025, causing significant hindrance to the free movement of GP employees, suppliers, and customers, keeping them stranded inside the office throughout the day until midnight. This has taken a toll on their health, with some employees falling sick. Grameenphone respects the law of the land and considers the safety and security of its employees and customers its highest priority. Law enforcement agencies deployed themselves around GP premises to protect individuals and property.
It has also come to our attention that these individuals are spreading misleading information about Grameenphone in media and in social media.
