The aspirant job seekers, who passed the examinations to get job in South Korea but failed to get approval, continued their hunger strike for fifth consecutive day on Thursday.
Four of them were hospitalised with critical conditions.
Abdul Maleq from Narayanganj, Rabiul Islam from Magura, Nur Alam Siddiqui from Netrakona and Abdus Samad from Satkhira were taken to Dhaka Medical College Hospital on Thursday morning and later, in the evening, were taken back to the place where they were staging the strike.
Besides, Sanoar Hossain from Manikganj and Faruk Hossain from Narayanganj were on intravenous saline, said the strikers.
The job seekers said that none, either from the government or from any organisation, met them to hear their sufferings and demands.
