The businessman of Malibag complained that the price of green pepper is being increased through manipulation. Jewel. He said that the retail traders have no hand behind the increase in the price of green chillies. In our opinion, the price is being increased by creating an artificial crisis in the market.

Sadrul Hossain expressed surprise after hearing the price of raw chili in Rampura market. This buyer said that he was surprised to hear the price when he came to buy green chillies in the market. A pod of raw chili is not available for less than Tk 100. I saw the news on Sunday that the price of raw chili is Tk 300 per kg. Within a day, the price increased by Tk 100 to Tk 400 per kg.
He said, one pod of green pepper can be thought of Tk 100! In fact, those who are supposed to monitor the market are not performing their duties properly. That is why a class of profiteers are increasing the price of goods at will. Common people are suffering.
Khairul Hossain, who came to the caravan market to express his anger about the price of green chillies, said that green chillies have become cold. The price of one kg of raw chilies is around Tk 400. What suddenly happened in the country that the price of pepper will be so much? All this is manipulation of businessmen.
Jamal Hossain, a businessman of Caravanbazar, said that the supply of raw chillies in the market is low. The government has allowed the import as there is a shortage of the product in the country. It will take time for the imported raw chillies to arrive in the country. There is very little possibility of a drop in the price of raw chillies before Eid.
He said, there is no room for manipulation by traders behind the increase in the price of green pepper. If the supply is less than the demand in the market, it is natural that the price will increase. Now the supply in the market is much less than the demand of green chillies. Due to this, the price has increased.
Shamsul, another trader in the market, said that the rain has caused extensive damage to the green pepper fields in different parts of the country. Again, the transportation to bring raw chili to Dhaka is also less. Now most of the truck-pickup vans are busy transporting sacrificial animals. On the one hand the destruction of chilli fields and on the other hand the supply of raw chillies in the market has decreased due to the transportation crisis. Due to this, the price may increase abnormally.
He said that the government has allowed the import of raw chillies because of the low supply in the market. We believe that the price of imported raw chillies will come down in the market. But there is not much chance of price reduction before Eid. Because, the imported raw chili will not come in the market before Eid.
