He added that people’s earnings have reduced a lot due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
As a result, Party leaders said, increasing prices of food items were creating extra financial burden on the common people.
Ganatantree Party alleged that the government did not care about the financial hardship of the common people.
The government completely failed to regulate the food market and the traders were increasing the prices of food items on their whims, and should monitor the food markets to stop price hike by the corrupt traders.”
