Opposition parties in Bangladesh have called for a nationwide strike over the rise in the cost of living.
Despite having enough food stock on hand, consumers have been paying prices for some food items higher than in Western nations.
Analysts fear rising inflation, high fuel costs, and disruptions from a protracted war in Ukraine will continue to raise the cost of living in Bangladesh, driving more unrest and protests in the coming days.
