It calls for tougher action

BSTI, on behalf of the government, has just asked for an explanation from Pran group in the usual and normal bureaucratic manner. Why? I believe drastic action should have been taken for such deliberate act of poisoning food consumed by so many people through their products. I would appeal to conscientious lawyers to please file a public interest litigation case against Pran, so that they are legally punished for this deliberate act of mass poisoning. The government should stop the sale of all Pran food items and carry out a total and thorough examination of all agricultural, processed, additives, local and imported materials used by Pran in their manufacturing process. The cost incurred by the authorities should be levied on Pran as a fine for their slack and callous attitude. The same measures should also be taken for all foodstuffs consumed by us all over the country. Engr. S. A. Mansoor Dhaka
