Abnormal day of Dhaka

As like daily routine works I get up from bed , brash teeth , take shave and ready for office .  When I start from home my wife told me that there is the meet Dhaka , so how I go office ? I my service life there was not any record that I was absent due to Hartal , accident  or any other reason. If I need leave I must inform my office and enjoy my time . This was a abnormal day , when I came Fatullah bus stand I see there was no bus or other public transport . Like all problematic days this day Bakul Vai was with me and after 45 minutes we get a Public bus which will go up to Jatrabari. Before get the bus we try to go with Lanch or Train , But there was no Lanch or troller on lanch ghat and train was uncertain . When we reached munshiklola Police check post , Police order us to go our from bus , then they check the bus and then allow us to go Dhaka . After 5 minutes we see another baricate   of Police , here police order the driver to park the bus and return the fair to the passenger . This mean the they do not allow the bus to go to Dhaka , Our previous bus also park in the beside of the road . Passenger are taking taka from the contractor. We have understand the situation , I told Bakul Vai that it is a abnotmal condition we need to go back in a safe place . I see one auto bike is going to Pagla . I call the driver to stop and take us . We set in the bike and going to back home . In all Hartal , stick and holiday like 1st baishak / 21 February we go office with alternative way like local bus / Rikshaw / Train / Lance . No another day we came back home , every time we go to office . This is the first day we came back home . Like this BNP somabesh , we also go office in last moha somabesh and there are some baricake which we have cross.

I am thinking the Technic of government to block the BNP , we are not going to the meeting . we are going to office , all other people are also not going the the meeting , they are going for their personal works . why police block us ? what is our fault , we are not political people .
