A contractor has taken the responsibility of distributing food to the patients at Tahirpur Hospital, Sunamganj, at an incredible price. The price of the product that has been bought by the people of this generation is not good luck to buy the goods at such a low price.
The contractor made a contract to supply milk to five rupees. Although the government Milkvita sells every liter of milk at 64 taka. Again, the cost of milk powder is 600 to 650 rupees per kg but the contractor will give it five rupees.
Likewise, the contract for supply of Kisms was made at a rate of five rupees. The same price will be given to the contractor Lachka Samai.
Contractor, Magura, Shing and Tengra will supply fish at Tk 140 per kg. But the price of these fish in the market is between 250 and 500 rupees per kg.
Similarly, in the market, half a kilogram of arbitration contractor will be given at Tk 85. Bijar native chickens (except for legs, head, necklace, pulse and pulse) are priced from 650 to 750, but the contractor will give it at Tk 260. No other chickens are available in this market except broiler.
Similarly, the prices of spices like yellow, dried pepper, coriander, and half of the market price are also given.
Hospital staffers said that contractors are taking the order by showing such price of food. But they are not able to understand what their interests are.
Nine companies participated in the tender for supply of food to the hospital. Among them, Nabi Hossain, owner of Dada Enterprises, a catering provider of Vibhavharkpur upazila, has the lowest bid.
None of the prices of 28 items of food items mentioned in the tender in the company are in line with the current market price.
He was not found by contacting the personal mobile phone of the Prophet Hossain for information on how and why food would be supplied at such a low price. Later he was found to be in a prison case.
Under the tender order, if the lowest borrower gets priority in getting the mandate, but its stated rates are abnormal, then it can be canceled. But Dada Enterprise's bid is abnormal, but the Tender Evaluation Committee has canceled it.
Habibur Rahman Kahin Mia, owner of Sunny Enterprise, who participated in the tender, also made written complaint to Tahirpur Upazila Nirbahi Officer on January 15 regarding this.
Kheinu Mia said, "The price at which the order is taken is not in line with the current market price." In the past, products could be available at any one time. How would the contractor give the patients with such unrealistic value? And even after having so little value, why did he choose the authority? '
Tahirpur Upazila Executive Officer Purnendu Deb said, "I got a written complaint about this. The matter is being investigated on the basis of the complaint. After that necessary action will be taken.
Upazila Health and Family Planning Officer Iqbal Hossain of Tahirpur Hospital also said that the prices of each commodity are incompatible with the market. Then why did the work order be given, he said, "We have prepared tenders and according to the rules we send Sunamganj. Later they approved the civil surgeon. '
Asked for the district civil surgeon Ashutosh Das said, "Tender has been given the order (Dada Enterprise) as the lowest bidder. Action will be taken against them if they can not provide food at this rate. And otherwise they will surrender. 'Milk-liter-five-rupee-cardamom-kg-85
