Country’s leading business organisation Federation of Bangladesh Chambers of Commerce and Industries (FBCCI) has demanded punishment of those involved in hiking  price of eggs abnormally.

Leaders of FBCCI made this demand at a view exchange meeting on price of essentials at its headquarters in the capital on Monday.

FBCCI President Jasim Uddin said, “We have to come out from this culture that the price of egg will increase by Tk 3 in a day while the price will decline after drive of government agency.”    

Pointing at the director general of the Directorate of National Consumer Rights Protection, the president said that if anyone is found involved in manipulation of the egg market, punitive measures should be taken against them so that no one can take this opportunity.
