Defying a ban, millers across the country continue polishing rice excessively and marketing it as “miniket” in the absence of monitoring.

Pay more to get less is what the miniket rice is all about.

The Directorate of National Consumers Right Protection (DNCRP) will launch a drive to stop sales of miniket rice in the market, as miniket is not an actual rice variety, said AHM Shafiquzzaman, director general of the DNCRP.
