Dhaka, Nov. 9 -- Government primary school teachers are conducting a work stoppage to protest the "police attack" on their protests pushing for three demands, including salaries at the grade 10 level.

The programme started on Sunday morning with several teachers at private schools informing bdnews24.com that a work stoppage was under way. However, classes are still being held in certain schools.
