A human chain program was held in Netrokona demanding fair prices for farmers' crops and a reduction in the prices of agricultural inputs such as fertilizer, seeds, diesel, and electricity. The program took place on Saturday in front of the district press club under the initiative of the Bangladesh Krishak Union, with participation from organizational leaders and people from various professions.
Speakers at the human chain stated that farmers are facing financial losses due to failing to get fair prices for their produce, while rising costs of agricultural inputs have increased production expenses. They mentioned that it has become difficult for farmers to make a livelihood through farming under these circumstances.
The program featured speeches by Bangladesh Krishak Union President Md. Iqbal Hossain, Netrokona District Press Club General Secretary Mahbubul Kibria Chowdhury Helim, and union secretaries Suman Ahmed, Shamim Talukdar, and Nazma Alam.
