Textiles and Jute Minister Golam Dastagir Gazi has said effective steps are being taken to soon reopen the state-owned jute mills that were closed down last year.
The mills would be reopened under private management on a lease basis. The minister also added that international tenders have already been called in this regard.
He made these remarks while speaking to the press after joining the monthly coordination meeting of the ministry online yesterday afternoon.
The minister said jute farmers are currently getting a fair price for raw jute as the value and demand of jute has increased across the world. The average price of raw jute in the current jute season is up to Tk 3,000, which is about 50 percent higher than last year, he added.
