Through the 'Open Market Sale' (OMS) program run by the Directorate General of Food, the government sells rice and flour at subsidized prices from trucks to support low-income people. However, a significant portion of these essential goods is not sold to the general public. Instead, dealers repackage them and sell them at higher prices in the open market, which is entirely illegal. Government officials are also complicit in this corruption, as they assist the dealers in exchange for bribes. The investigative video report titled "Dealers and authorities steal the rice and wheat meant for the poor" (Bengali title: "গরিবের চাল-আটা খায়, ডিলার ও কর্মকর্তায়") exposed these illegal practices in detail. Which aired on Independent Television on 14 April 2023.
