Prime Minister and Leader of the House Sheikh Hasina today called upon the country’s people to remain vigilant to the market alongside the government monitoring to keep the prices of essential commodities at a tolerable level.
“I call upon the country’s people to keep their vigilance (alongside the government monitoring) and it will make the work easy,” she told the parliament in reply to a supplementary question during the Prime Minister’s scheduled question-answer session.
Opposition Chief Whip Mujibul Huq, elected from Kishoreganj-3 constituency, made the question regarding the market monitoring and punitive measures to stop the unethical jobs of traders and businessmen.
Mentioning that there are also Members of Parliament and local government representatives, Sheikh Hasina said, “If everyone helps the government in market monitoring, then the unscrupulous traders and businessmen can’t hike prices in a dishonest way.”
She added, “Off course, from the government side, we are taking stern actions and will continue to do it… we are trying our best.”
The Leader of House said that alongside conducting mobile courts, regular visits to the markets are going on and punitive measures are being taken to stop the dishonesty in the market. বিস্তারিত
