Barisal, Apr 18 (UNB) – Marketing and operation of Grameen Phone Ltd was postponed here for an indefinite period on Sunday, a day after it went into operation in the district. The authorities took the decision as its local dealers shut down their showrooms as some leaders of a political party ransacked a showroom soon after the inauguration of Grameen Phone network here Saturday. The leaders went on rampage as they were not invited in the inauguration ceremony, according to a Grameen Phone dealer. “The situation is now out of control as negotiation efforts by the authorities went in vain,” the dealer said insisting on anonymity. Meanwhile, police have been deployed in all showrooms of the Grameen Phone company and its Lakutia network tower.
