DHAKA, Feb 20, 2026 (BSS) - Dhaka Metropolitan Police (DMP) Commissioner Sazzat Ali has urged business leaders to keep the prices of essential commodities at a tolerable level during the holy month of Ramadan.
He made this call while briefing journalists at Moulvibazar under Chawkbazar Police Station this afternoon.

Such cooperation, he said, would help ensure transparency and maintain fair prices in the marketplace.
Seeking the active support of the business community, the DMP Commissioner expressed hope that joint efforts would contribute to market stability and protect consumers' interests during Ramadan.
Among others present at the briefing were DMP Additional Police Commissioner (Crime and Operations) SN Md.
