We appreciate the government's recent actions against the producers of contaminated and unhygienic foods and herbal medicines. But it is

not clear yet if these actions are limited to Dhaka only or anything is really happening elsewhere in the country. I know several herbal medicine factories in Rajshahi. Local people believe these factories are making money out of dirt or ashes of cow dung

The authorities concerned should probe the matter.
