Food Secretary Mst. Nazmanara Khanum has said that the price
of rice will not go up ahead of the month of Ramadan.
She made the remarks while talking to reporters at her
office in the Secretariat on Wednesday.
"On the occasion of Ramadan, I can assure you that the
price of rice will not go up. Because the food-friendly program will start from
March,” she said this in response to a question.
"If we see such a situation, then OMS center will be
increased, she added.
She said more than 20 lakh tons of food grains are in stock.
Even then the millers want to sell rice. What does that mean? The price of
coarse rice will not increase rather than it will go down. If the new paddy is
harvested, it will decrease further. Boro rice will hit the market in mid-April
if there is no natural disaster. As a result, there is no fear of rising rice
prices."
The food secretary added that prices were rising at various
levels and it will be controlled by increasing the supply.
