Bangladesh is a land endowed with various types of bounties of the Almighty. Different kinds of fruits, fishes, vegetables, and medicinal as well as wood plants are available in this country. The people of Bangladesh are vastly acquainted with the consumption of various salubrious and wholesome seasonal fruits. Every season brings in the message of numerous tasty and juicy fruits! Due to smooth transportation and communication, both the people living in villages as well as cities are now enjoying the taste of these fruits. However, it is a matter of great regret that, becoming the victims of the greed of dishonest businessmen, the fresh seasonal fruits are now losing their original and classic tastes! Banana, Papaya, mango and many seasonal fruits are now being ripened in artificial and harmful ways. Some days ago, a newspaper reported that, papaya was being ripened (?) through heating. Green banana can easily be ripened within one or half an hour! We don't actually want these kinds of 'conditioned' fruits! We only want the taste of classic and juicy seasonal fruits. The govt. and the law enforcement agencies should take appropriate initiative in this regard.
