According to the unofficial reports, more than 50,000 tons of the commodity had been exported to India despite less yield of the crop this season.The market sources told The Nation that the country would have to face severe shortage of the commodity if the government did not impose ban on its export.

He said the government is also exploring “all the opportunities – Nation
