Shocking decision
We the people of Bangladesh depend on rice to feed ourselves. But the prices of rice along with other commodities are increasing rapidly. If this situation goes on one day the country will face a famine. A few days ago, a news report was published in various newspapers that the government was going to buy some new luxury cars for the advisers and the DC's. The decision came as a shock to us because the country is passing through a crisis. According to Dr. Akbar Ali Khan(Chairman of RRC) the money which will be spent for buying the luxury vehicles could be used to decrease the prices of rice and other household commodities.
As a citizen of Bangladesh, it is beyond my comprehension how the government could think in terms of buying such vehicles!
