Adviser on Finance and Commerce Dr. Salehuddin Ahmed said that the government's priority is to bring back the laundered money, and the task force is working on it. There is no need to form a separate commission for this.

He said money laundering information is being collected. This requires technical assistance. However, it is not possible to say exactly when the money will be returned.

The finance adviser told reporters after the meeting of the procurement advisory committee at the secretariat on Sunday (October 20).

He said that the task force is working to bring back the smuggled money. The smuggling did not happen in one day so it will take time to recover this money.

The finance adviser said that public-private initiatives are working to bring relief to the market. TCB, OMS, Department of Agriculture Marketing are working. Along with this, there are several private initiatives, which we welcome.

He said that there will be relief in the prices of other products including vegetables like eggs. The scope of selling products through TCB will be further increased. The sale of TCB products will be increased outside Dhaka.
