Bangladesh Agro-based Product Producers and Merchants Association demanded resignation of FBCCI president Annisul Huq for discussing the price of essentials with the BDR director general before resolving the growers' problem.

Secretary General of the association and member of FBCCI general body Mollah Saidur Rahman said Annisul Huq has violated the growers' rights.

In a statement he urged the government to discuss the price issue with the growers and retail agro product sellers instead of middleman and stockists.

"The government could not control the price hike of essentials due to dealing the matter with the people's from outside instead of proper person," he said.
