In Parshuram municipality of Feni, lease prices for seven markets under municipal authority have risen sharply, with tenders finalized at rates four to five times higher than last year. The permanent cattle market was leased for Tk 6 million, compared to Tk 2.09 million in 2025, while the CNG stand went for Tk 2 million, up from Tk 443,000. The tender process, held on Wednesday, covered eight markets including vegetable, fish, poultry, and meat markets, most of which saw unprecedented bids.
Traders fear that the steep lease rates will lead to higher fees and prices for livestock and transport, causing hardship for buyers and passengers. They also worry that lessees may impose extra charges to recover costs, potentially harming both sellers and consumers. One lessee, requesting anonymity, said they would collect fees at a reasonable level to protect farmers and traders.
Parshuram municipal administrator and assistant commissioner (land) S.M. Shafayat Akhtar Nur stated that the tenders were opened without any syndicate involvement and that high bidders with proper documentation would receive leases following verification.
