The Directorate General of Drug Administration has fixed the MRP (Maximum Retail Price) of surgical mask at Tk 30 per piece amid the coronavirus fear.
“Those, who sell the product over the fixed price, will face legal actions,” its Director General Mahbubur Rahman told Bangla Tribune on Wednesday (Mar 11).
The preventive tool skyrocketed after three people in the country diagnosed with the infection.
Rahman said, “The face mask manufacturers are asked not to supply over 500 masks under an invoice.”
“The related companies are asked to produce and supply 50ml hand-sanitizer packs,” he added.
