Strict supervision for E-commerce

As we progress as a nation towards development, many positive changes have occurred over time. One of the most convenient approaches taken to digitise Bangladesh was the introduction of E-commerce. Even though the initiatives were taken long ago to familiarise the public about the benefits of such services, it took us a while to further develop the idea and practice. 

Now almost the majority of city dwellers are accustomed to E-commerce. The possibilities of such services are abundant too. However, some people out there are trying to take advantage of the situation. There are many pages or sites on the internet that display certain products, but upon ordering, the products that are delivered turn out to vary in size, shape or even quality.

As a victim myself, and on behalf of others, I would like to request the concerned authorities to strictly regulate the E-commerce industry. That way, not only will this industry flourish, but it will also contribute to the growth of our economy.
