The price of gold fluctuates quite frequently in the domestic market. However, the amount decreases, but increases more than it does. Thus, in the past year, the price of good quality gold, i.e. 22 carats per bhori, has increased by about 60,000 taka. Traders in this sector claim that such a rise in the price of gold in the local market is mainly due to the global market. According to them, due to the increase in price, there has been a decline in sales. Sales have decreased by half. In some cases, there is a difference of as much as 60,000 taka per bhori compared to the global market.

Economists also say that how the price in the domestic market is adjusted with the global market is…

Abu Taher, Ramganj Correspondent: Although it is a government institution on paper, the Kolchama Government Primary School in Ramganj, Lakshmipur, does not have an academic building for teaching the young students. As a result, the students have been taking daily lessons in the nearby Cyclone Center for the past 3 years. This has led to the collapse of primary education programs in the village of Kolchama. It has been alleged that no solution is being found despite several attempts to resolve the issue. On Monday (October 21), it was learned during a land inspection that the Kolchama Government Primary School was established in the village of Kolchama in Ramganj in 1948 on the property donated by local Ashad Mia Bepari, Abul Kashem Master, Hedayet Ulya and Sekantar Mia. After independence, the school was converted from a raw building to a one-story building with government funding in 1995.
