Dismantle the potato syndicate
Potato is an essential vegetable in our lives. There is hardly any dish that does not include potato. After rice, potato is probably the most in-demand food item. It is often said that Bengalis live on fish and rice, but it would not be an exaggeration to say that they live on rice and potatoes. Now-a-days, many Bengalis no longer eat fish regularly, but it is hard to imagine a day without potato. When there are no other vegetables at home, many families simply make mashed potatoes and have it with rice. However, even this simple potato is now out of reach for many. At the retail level, the price of potato is currently 70 to 75 taka per kilogram, which is almost the same as the price of fine rice and even more expensive than coarse rice. In such a situation, low-income families have to carefully calculate whether they can afford potatoes at all.
