Workers are busy making shemai (vermicelli) at a factory in Chattogram’s Rajakhali. The price of the noodles shoots up ahead of Eid-ul-Fitr because of a hike in the prices of raw materials such as atta (whole wheat flour), flour and sugar. The price of 35 kilograms of vermicelli is Tk 1,600 this year, up from Tk 1,300 in the same period last year. Photo: Suman Babu
