Commerce ministry to recommend home ministry take action against Evaly

An inter-ministerial committee led by the commerce ministry has decided to recommend the home ministry to take action against the country’s e-commerce platform Evaly, which develops a huge gap between its asset and liability.

He said the commerce ministry will hand over the responsibility to the law enforcement agency since the law has been violated. Before doing so, the commerce minister and the commerce secretary will be informed about the matter.

Hafizur said the central bank has been asked to provide information of 10 e-commerce platforms. Among them, the commerce ministry has received info of a platform.

The information of remaining ones will also come out. The meeting has also discussed the activities of Dhamaka and E-orange, he added.
