My Research Topic

The main reasons and public’s

reaction about recent price hike in
Bangladesh
 INTRODUCTION
With the price increase of essentials capturing headlines of
our national newspapers almost everyday. Because this
price hiking problem has become the main social problem
in Bangladesh. People are suffering most in this problem
specially the poor peoples. There are many reason behind
this problem but corruption, formation of syndicate, high
inflation rate, international price hike of fuel and other
essential commodities, power failure, natural disaster is the
main reason behind this. And if the food price is not
controlled, the inflation rate may reach double-digit level
very soon which is currently 7.5%. In my research paper I
tried to figure out these reasons and tried to find out some
sollution.
 Areas to be Studied
 What are the main reason behind this recent price
hike in Bangladesh?
 Is corruption and local syndicate only
responsible about this price hike?
 What should be the role of Government to reduce
this price hike?
 How can we solve this problem?
 HYPOTHESIS
There are many reasons behind this price hiking
problem in Bangladesh. Corruption, formation of
syndicate groups, increase of international
market price of fuel and essential commodities,
power crisis, natural disaster, transportation
problem etc are the main reason behind this
problem. The Government can solve this problem
by introducing effective monitoring system, by
improving law & order and by identifying the evil
syndicate groups.
 METHODOLOGY
There are two types of data in my research paper.

 Primary Data: I have collected my primary data by

conducting a survey on 30 general people.
 Secondary Data: I have collected my secondary
data mostly from different website, newspapers,
and magazines.

classes in trading.

monitoring system.
D. By re-introducing old
rationing system by the 46.67
Government to stable the
prices. A B C
 FINDING
 The prices of commodities are almost
uniform across the capital, which only
implies that a group of people are fixing
the prices and that they have enough clout
in the market to be able to decide what the
prices should be.
 Corruption of so called political leaders,
corruption of different Government
officials and law enforcing agency is the
main reason behind this problem.
 CONCLUTION
 Given the scenario in Bangladesh, any measure
to control prices, barring one that addresses the
syndicates, is bound to be band-aid-like — a bit
of eyewash. That is perhaps the first area where
the government should focus in its bid to reduce
the prices of essential items. But it is not
possible for the Government to reduce this
problem alone. The general people, the mass
media everybody should came forward to help
the Government to reduce this problem.
 RECOMMENDATION
 Identifythe syndicate groups.
 By improving law and order.
 By framing appropriate laws by the
Government to eliminate middle
classes in trading.
 By introducing effective monitoring
system.
