Director of Mithila Group Mahbub Khan Himel said, “Our traditional local fruits are being lost due to natural and man-made causes.” Chemically mixed foreign fruits are pushing the people of the country to health risks. Besides, malnutrition is also increasing. But the soil, climate, weather and nature of Bangladesh are very helpful in producing native fruits.
