Bangladesh Garment Manufacturers and Exporters Association (BGMEA) and labour leaders have jointly formed nine committees to monitor the situation in the apparel sector, specially in Dhaka, ahead of the Eid-ul-Azha festival.
The BGMEA leaders and the labour leaders formed the committees at a meeting held at the BGMEA office in the city Saturday.
BGMEA officials said the committees would act promptly to address any disturbance in the apparel sector in Dhaka.
