806 tonnes of green chilli imported in 3 days, yet prices hit Tk400/kg in Jashore

Just a week ago, green chillies imported from India were sold in the retail markets of Jashore at Tk80-100 per kg, but the price has now spiked to nearly Tk400 per kg

Homes remain waterlogged with nearly 3 lakh residents in southwestern Bangladesh facing severe challenges. Decades of efforts to resolve the waterlogging issue, including over 21 projects, have failed to provide relief, with river siltation and ineffective drainage adding to the crisis.
