Dulu pledges modern multipurpose market at Barabari Bazar
Disaster Management and Relief Minister Asadul Habib Dulu today said construction of a modern multipurpose market at Barabari Bazar was part of his commitment and hoped that the market would promote local trade and bring positive changes to market management.
“Planned implementation of the project could create opportunities to expand local trade and bring positive changes to market management. The modern market was being envisioned not merely as a place for buying and selling, but also as an integrated centre for expanding local trade and commerce, marketing agricultural products, creating business opportunities for small-scale and women entrepreneurs, and providing essential commercial facilities,” he said.
The minister made the comment after visiting a proposed site for constructing a modern multipurpose market at Barabari Bazar in Sadar upazila.
Dulu said that the market's design could take into account the need for shops and commercial spaces, facilities for storing and marketing agricultural products, parking, clean and hygienic sanitation, security, and fire safety measures.
