The Directorate of National Consumers’ Right Protection (DNCRP) has praised a pharmacist in Dhaka’s Banasree area for maintaining ethical business practices by refusing to sell expired medicines and upholding consumer rights.
The commendation was made during a DNCRP inspection led by Deputy Directors Bikash Chandra Das and Afroza Rahman. During the operation, officials discovered expired face wash and bread at a nearby grocery store.
The store owner was fined Tk 5,000 under Section 51 of the Consumer Rights Protection Act, 2013, for violating consumer rights and was issued a preliminary warning.
