| Crowded market place' Bangladesh (Trade Fair'18) |
The first is, 'at present, half a million Bangladeshi people are shopping in Calcutta New Market'.
Understand, these hundred and a half million Bangladeshi people have made an average shopping of 20 thousand rupees
That means, our 300 crores taka went to Calcutta.
Eid has a great contribution to our economy. During Eid, people spend the most. Any cost is the main source of GDP.
Due to this cost, shopkeepers do business. Holcester does business. Factories do business. The transport businessmen do business. The manufacturers of raw materials do business. Businesses of all of them mean that workers' employees get salary bonuses.
So, this market will cost less than three billion taka, but the huge mustache signal.
Because, if half a million people go to Calcutta, then three lakhs will be passed in the next, then one million will go to the next time.
Why are they going out for Eid market?
Don't they have patriotism?
The answer is the second news of that news which wandering in our Newsfeed.
In the news, two copies of the same shirt. Bought from a normal store - the price is 450 rupees. On the contrary from a brand shop - the price is more than two thousand.
Patriotism is the responsibility of the buyers only, is there no responsibility for the seller?
In the country where 450 taka shirts can be bought at the price of Taka 2 thousand at air-conditioned branded shops, the country's public can not be blamed for shopping in Calcutta

Especially when going to India is a lot easier. Indian Embassy offers today by Visa Festival. Also offer Multiple Visas in a same passport.
There is no fault for India. If you get such like Business Opportunities who want to spoil it, Which country will want to spoil? Would we? Not at all.
There is a junior colleague in my office who’s home town is in Jessore. This multiple visa has been installed on all his family's passports.
To buy a little shirt or pants, or even to see a doctor, even to see Salman Khan's new movie, they can now move to Calcutta easily.
Their cost is less to go to Kolkata than Dhaka. The quality of products or services is also very good.
Our traffic system is also responsible for our callouts.
The time it takes to reach New Market from Uttara or Bashundhara City, at the same time you can reach Uttara from the Calcutta New Market. There is a multiple visa in the passport.
Even after spending an extra cost of airfare, shopping will be beneficial for you. Because in Calcutta you could buy twenty thousand rupees, if you were in Dhaka, it would have crossed 50 thousand.
If I used to calculate the above 300 million rupees, if half a million people did not go to Calcutta, then they would spend Tk 800 crore on their pockets.
The difference between the 300 and the 800 is understandable. Patriotism does not matter here.
Our shopkeepers, factory owners and workers are sitting down in the middle.
Now the question is, why don't the shopkeepers reduce the price?
In order to give a showroom in Dhaka, they do not even have to pay obscene advances, high rent, decoration, high utility bill etc.
So what is the solution?
There is no solution.
Problems are solved if there is a problem in this country?
Let's make the slogan pole in the team for the next Eid.
Eid new clothes?
Let's go to Kolkata.
