The study, which dealt with the phenomenon of price hikes, demanded a review of prices of fuel.

It also called for reconsideration of fees for services relating to licensing, entry of workforce, insurance and other official formalities.

“Prices of consumer products, mainly foodstuff, should be fixed,” the study said, urging stern measures to ensure full compliance of the fixed prices rule and curbing of commercial fraud.

According to the study, there is a need for a strategy that encourages collective import of consumer commodities under government control.
