IT IS ONLY STUPID,DUMB AND IGNORANT FOOL SYCOPHANTS CAN DO IT UNDER THE BAL SINCE EVERYTHING DONE UNDER BAL IS NOTHING BUT "OITIHASIK" AS CLAIMED DAY IN DAY OUT.
It will be unrealistic if some one says rice should be available at Tk 8.00 per kilogram. But it should be available at a price affordable for the majority of the people. News paper reports say that large number of Bangladeshi families had to reduce their food intake due to abnormal food prices. A nation is clearly improvised and truly poor when a large number of its population can't afford 2 meals a day. But I heard the Prime Minister said now people are well fed and actually eating more. What is the real truth, people empty stomach or their leader's speech? From the very beginning food is a political tool in Bangladesh and each and every government is directly responsible for this crucial issue. From a strictly moral point of view politicians are supposed to serve the people and if they can't do that they forfeit their right to rule. In a small country like Bangladesh which is amazingly sustaining a population beyond its capacity, food will always be a matter of supreme concern. But this problem gets worse when the politicians mismanage. The continuous food crisis in Bangladesh will remain a challenge for all the governments to come but if they give up to the manipulators an optimum solution will never be possible.
The demand for food is ever increasing and due to the lack of understanding of the gravity of the situation or connivance of the administration with the market vultures, common man is suffering. After 40 years as a sovereign nation Bangladesh still does not have a standard and workable national food policy. This is evident when market price increases 30/40 pc and the administration can't do anything. This abject failure has helped the manipulators to take control of the market and play as and when they wish. This is a national tragedy when families go hungry, when children spend sleepless nights in empty stomach and when parents toils to feed their children but can't.
Life can go on without butter but bread must be there.
