Refrain from panic-buying as enough food stock for Ramadan: PMO

The Prime Minister’s Office (PMO) today urged the countrymen to refrain from panic buying as the country has enough food stock ahead of the holy month of Ramadan.

The directive came from a preparatory meeting held at the PMO here ahead of the Ramadan and the holy Eid-ul-Fitr.

Different issues including food stock and its nationwide supply, law and order, overall electricity management, water supply and smooth journey of the home-goers on the occasion of Eid-ul-Fitr prominently came up in the meeting.

“According to available information received from different ministries, we have enough food in stock compared to any time of the past ahead of the Ramadan, which is a matter of satisfaction for us,” PM’s Principal Secretary Md Tofazzel Hossain Miah told a news briefing after the meeting.

In this context, he requested all not to go for panic buying.

“There will be no problem if everyone buys commodities they required instead of buying excessive food at a time,” he assured.বিস্তারিত
