Bangladesh has increased fuel prices by around 50 per cent, the highest hike since the country's independence in 1971, local media reported on Saturday. The sharp rise came up as a shock to the people who thronged filling stations on Friday night after the government announced the new prices, Dhaka Tribune reported.
