The concerned officials of the District Food Control Office are struggling to screen and select 41 people from the 420 applications.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Food Department has issued new OMS policies across the country. In light of the new policies, all previous OMS dealerships across the country, including Chittagong, were supposed to be canceled, and new dealers were supposed to be appointed from December 1. OMS rice and flour were supposed to be sold to general buyers in 41 wards of the city from December 1 through the new dealers. This was not possible due to the inability to appoint dealers. However, even though new dealers were not appointed, OMS activities are not stopped. Activities are being carried out through the previous dealers.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Upazila Food Controller (Technical) of the Chittagong District Food Control Office, Md. Fakhrul Alam, told the media that the government has issued a new OMS policy. For that purpose, 41 new OMS dealers were supposed to be appointed in 41 wards of Chittagong city by December 1. But after the notification for the appointment of new OMS dealers was published, 420 people applied for the 41 dealers. It is taking some time to scrutinize the applications. Due to which it was not possible to appoint new dealers by December 1. The activities have been continued through the previous dealers. The previous dealers have also filed a case in the court. Moreover, the City Corporation has assigned us 41 places for 41 wards. OMS dealers will have to have shops at those places to sell products. We are also giving importance to the fact that the shops are located at the places determined by the City Corporation.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It has been learned from the District Food Controller&#8217;s Office that there are currently 48 OMS dealers in Chittagong city. OMS activities have now been stopped in the upazilas. Out of 48 dealers, 25 dealers are allocated to sell OMS rice and flour at 25 points every day. A dealer is given 1 ton of rice and 1.5 tons of flour every day. A buyer can buy 5 kg of flour at 24 taka (per kg) and 5 kg of rice at 30 taka from the dealer.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Food Ministry officials said that to control the price of food grains, the government sells OMS rice and flour at low prices to the poor and indigent people. But the same person has been the dealer for 15-20 years. In addition, Awami League leaders and activists have received four to five times more dealerships than the OMS center. In such a situation, the interim government took the initiative to cancel the licenses of all previous OMS dealers and appoint new dealers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Crime Desk: 420 applications have been submitted to the Chittagong Food Control Office for 41 new OMS (open market food grain) dealers in 41 wards of the city.
