Beef prices have risen sharply in the wake of the corona virus.\u00a0It is being sold somewhere at Rs 750 per kg.\u00a0Helpless consumers at unbridled prices.\u00a0The Kansas Consumers Society (CCS), a consumer rights group, has called for effective action.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The organization has demanded from the City Corporation and the Ministry of Commerce to fix and implement maximum prices of essential commodities including beef till the next Eid on the occasion of the upcoming Eid, the ongoing crisis of Kovid-19.<\/span><\/p>\n

In a statement to the media on Tuesday (April 27th), CCS executive director Palash Mahmud claimed that the highest price of beef is fixed in the capital every year on the occasion of Ramadan.\u00a0Although this rule has been in place for the last 45 years, it has not been done this time.<\/span><\/p>\n

As a result, the price of beef has exceeded Rs 600 per kg.\u00a0Somewhere 750 rupees is being sold.\u00a0Due to the high price, beef has now become a luxury food.\u00a0If maximum pricing and effective measures are not taken in a short period of time, there is a risk of further increase in prices before Eid.<\/span><\/p>\n

Palash Mahmud said the price of rice, which was Tk 1,900 a sack (50 kg) in different parts of the country a month ago, is now Tk 2,500.\u00a0The price of ginger sold at 100 rupees per kg is now more than 300 rupees.\u00a0In the last one and a half months, the prices of all kinds of daily commodities starting from rice, pulses, oil, sugar, milk, onion, ginger, garlic, chilli, turmeric have gone up.\u00a0The prices of some products have also increased 2 to 3 times.\u00a0Although the liquid milk produced by farmers across the country remained unsold, the price of pasteurized milk has gone up.\u00a0The matter is absolutely inconsistent.<\/span><\/p>\n

CCS says millions of people have lost their jobs in the wake of the Covid-19.\u00a0Workers, day laborers, hawkers, rickshaw pullers and other daily income earners have stopped earning.\u00a0About 60 million poor and middle class people are in misery.\u00a0These helpless people are struggling to support their families.\u00a0In this situation, the increase in the price of daily commodities is very inhumane.<\/span><\/p>\n

It is the responsibility of the government to fix the maximum price of daily necessities so that people can buy the necessary products at affordable prices.\u00a0Especially on the occasion of the upcoming Eid, measures have to be taken before the market goes out of control.<\/span><\/p>\n

The executive director of CCS said that just as it is important to treat Kovid-19 infected people, it is also important to keep people at home to protect the nation from this epidemic.<\/span><\/p>\n

As a result of staying at home, on the one hand, the income has stopped and on the other hand, the price of goods is also increasing.\u00a0Such a rise in commodity prices is creating a situation of consumer confidence.<\/span><\/p>\n

Although it was necessary to take further action in this regard, it was not taken.\u00a0Therefore, I demand to take action in a timely manner even if it is late.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
