Potato growers in Rangpur (Bangladesh) protest and demand compensation from cold storage owners

April 28, 2010
Hundreds of farmers blocked roads in Dinajpur and Rangpur yesterday demanding compensation as thousands of bags of potatoes they kept in cold storage have rotten due to alleged negligence of the authorities.
The affected farmers said the authorities overloaded the cold storage but did not arrange alternative source of power during load shedding.
Sources said the cold storage has storage capacity of about 40,000 bags of potatoes, but the proprietor stored about 60,000 bags of potatoes this year.
