No concerns about food safety, says Food Adviser

Food adviser Ali Imam Majumdar said that the government has sufficient food stocks, so there is no concern about food security.

The adviser said this while visiting Bhatshala Haor at all Weather Road in Austagram upazila of Kishoreganj on Saturday noon (April 5).

He said the government is importing food grains to minimize the loss of Aman paddy in last year’s flood. This time, there will be a bumper harvest of Boro rice across the country, including the haors. If everything goes well, the country will have a food surplus.

The government is making relentless efforts so that farmers get a fair price for their crops, he added.
