Price hike is a normal issue in Bangladesh during Ramadan. Before The month began , the commerce minister had said that the prices of the necessary commodities would remain under control and there was enough supply of rice in the market. But in reality we find that the statement of the minister has not had any impact on the market.

Who are the people manipulating the market?
