Commerce Minister Khandaker Abdul Muktadir has said 59 lakh beneficiaries have been removed from the Trading Corporation of Bangladesh (TCB). He also said the TCB subsidy will be brought down to zero within the next four to five years.

The Commerce Minister made these remarks at the inauguration ceremony of TCB product sales at Karwan Bazar in the capital on Thursday morning, September 17.

He further said a disparity is noticeable in supply and the supply chain. Due to this, there is still no stability in the market. He said the programme TCB is running through subsidies will be beneficial for the country's people.

The Commerce Minister said converting TCB cards to digital will save Tk 300 to 350 crore.
