He stated that the price hike, which occurred within a month, is an injustice to the people. Rahman suggested that the government could have discussed the matter during the recent budget session.

Rahman made these comments after visiting the family of a four-year-old child who was raped and murdered in Sylhet. He demanded swift legal action and exemplary punishment for the perpetrators. Rahman also called for the government to act as the guardian of the people, emphasizing the need for law enforcement and justice.

During his visit, Rahman was accompanied by several Jamaat-e-Islami leaders, including Ehsanul Mahbub Zubayer, Muhammad Fakhrul Islam, Habibur Rahman, Nurul Islam Babul, Abdul Hannan, and Mohammad Shahjahan Ali.
