There is a solution to the problem of food wastage in South Asia and Bangladesh, and that solution is DENBA. DENBA is a technology that can increase production and improve the quality of agricultural products while reducing food waste. DENBA is also beneficial in the processing industry, as it can improve the quality of thawed meat and reduce the amount of waste produced. Furthermore, the technology is energy-efficient, saving costs and improving health standards in the industry.
Denba helps to Keep it fresh under freezing conditions. Reduce loss rates and stay delicious.
Effect characteristics
Because it does not freeze, food can be cooked to enhance the taste!
Inhibit the reproduction of bacteria, reduce reproduction rate to 1/30 *
Activate the cells of the ingredients and keep the food fresh!
*Compared with ordinary refrigerators / Test results from the Japan Food Analysis Center of Japan In addition, water molecules will not “solidify” (that is, freeze), and the environment of electrostatic waves can prevent food from oxidizing and inhibit bacteria. DENBA + uses this technology to achieve the preservation and ripening of food ingredients.
01 DENBA + Freezing Principle below the Freezing Point:
Freshness Preservation Solution In Bangladesh 20
The original technology of DENBA + can generate static waves in the refrigerator. Due to the influence of the small electronic vibration, it will not freeze even at temperatures between 0 and -4 degrees Celsius. Frozen, producing a non-freezing, ice-cooled, refrigerated environment. The environment created by electrostatic waves not only drastically reduces the rate of food oxidation, but also inhibits bacterial growth. With DENBA +, it is possible to cook ingredients in a fresh environment.

In Bangladesh, medical negligence has become a popular topic of interest and discussion. However, there is currently no precise and comprehensive legislation to prevent medical negligence. Currently, the vast majority of instances of medical negligence go unpunished, but frequently result in violence. As a result, the general public’s perception of the veracity of medical services is taking a downward turn, which is a frustrating situation.
Medical Negligence And Medical Malpractice Law In Bangladesh 31
Medical negligence is a clear violation of the right to health committed by professionals whose primary duty is to protect when an emergency occurs and health rights are at risk. The number of deaths attributable to medical negligence is not negligible. According to a study, medical errors are the third leading cause of death in the United States, after heart disease and cancer, and are responsible for at least 250,000 deaths annually.
Medical negligence in Bangladesh:
As for Bangladeshi statistics, Ain O Salish Kendra released a report in 2008 detailing 504 instances of medical negligence between June 1995 and September 2008. According to the Geneva Declaration of the World Medical Association, a member of the medical profession must solemnly pledge that the health of the patient will be the primary concern.
In contrast, medical malpractice implies culpable negligence in the field of medical science and poses a risk to the health and well-being of a patient who entrusts his or her well-being to a medical professional. Articles 18 and 32 of the Bangladeshi constitution, which guarantee the right to health and the right to life, are being flagrantly violated.
Medical Negligence And Medical Malpractice Law In Bangladesh 32
Article 32 of our Constitution protects “the right to life” as a fundamental right for its citizens. In addition, according to the fundamental principles of state policy, the state is obligated to provide “basic necessities of life,” such as food, clothing, shelter, education, and medical care, as well as to “raise the level of nutrition and improve public health.” Articles 15, 18, read in conjunction with Articles 31, 32, and 44 outline the constitutional remedies for the protection of health and life. Article 102 (writ petitions) of the United States Constitution allows for the enforcement of such rights.
In general, criminal complaints are filed against doctors alleging the commission of offenses punishable under Section 304A or Sections 336, 337, or 338 of the Bangladesh Penal Code 1860 alleging rashness or negligence on the part of the doctors resulting in the death or injury of the patient to varying degrees. However, Sections 80 and 88 of the Penal Code provide defences for doctors who have been accused of criminal liability.
Bangladesh’s Medical and Dental Council
Bangladesh’s Medical and Dental Council is the governing body for doctors and other health professionals. According to the বাংলাদেশ মেডিকেল ও ডেন্টাল কাউন্সিল আইন, ২০১০, if a medical practitioner or dentist is found guilty of professional misconduct, the council may deny that person registration (Section 23).
Due to professional misconduct, the council may also order the removal of the name of any registered physician or dentist from the registration, either permanently or for a specified period. In addition, Section 5(a) of the Code of Medical Ethics states that gross negligence on the part of medical and dental practitioners in the performance of their duties to their patients may constitute misconduct sufficient to justify suspension or removal from the registrar.
The Medical Practice and Private Clinics and Laboratories (Regulation) Ordinance of 1982 granted the director general of health services supervisory authority. The director general of health services or any officer delegated by him shall have the authority to inspect any chamber of registered medical practitioners, private clinic, private hospital, or pathological laboratory to determine whether they have violated or failed to comply with any provision of this ordinance (Section 11).
If the director general determines that they have violated any provision of this ordinance, he may recommend to the government, in the case of a medical practitioner, that he be barred from engaging in private medical practice, in the case of a private clinic or private hospital, that its license be revoked, and in the case of a pathological laboratory, that it be closed.
Patients’ rights are similarly protected and enforced in cases of medical negligence, with particular reference to the Consumer Rights Protection Act of 2009. This act defines’service’ as, among other things, health services made available to consumers in exchange for payment (Section 2 (22) of the act), but not free services.
Medical Negligence And Medical Malpractice Law In Bangladesh 34
Punishment for negligence
Now they are able to file a lawsuit under this act because a medical patient is considered a consumer and medical institutions or professionals are service providers under Section 2, despite the fact that this is not explicitly stated in the act. However, courts have accepted such cases. This act’s section 45 addresses the penalties for failing to sell or deliver the promised product or service.
It stipulates imprisonment for a term not to exceed three years, a fine not to exceed Tk 2,00,000, or both. In Section 52, it is stated that anyone who violates the rules or regulations of this act or law in a way that endangers the life or security of a consumer will be punished with imprisonment for a term not to exceed one year, a fine not to exceed Tk 50,000, or both.
The section that can be directly related to medical negligence is Section 53, which states that if a service provider causes damage to the money, health, or life of a service recipient through negligence, irresponsibility, or carelessness, he will be punished with imprisonment for a term not to exceed three years, a fine not to exceed Tk 2,00,000, or both.
However, these punishments are insufficient because the amount of the fine is often disproportionate to the loss or damage caused by the service providers.
In addition, if a consumer wishes to file a complaint under Section 60 of the Consumer Protection Act of 2009, he or she must first file a complaint with the director general or an authorized representative of the department within 30 days of the accrual of the cause of action. And according to Section 61, the magistrate will not take cognizance of any crime if the charge sheet is not submitted within ninety days of the complaint being filed.
Medical Negligence and Consumer complaint:
It means that even if a consumer suffers a loss, the consumer cannot file a complaint directly with the magistrate, and the magistrate will not take cognizance until the magistrate receives the charge sheet within 90 days from the authorized person. As a result, consumers become frustrated or lose interest because this procedure is complicated and appears inconvenient. In the case of private sectors, the director general has the authority to identify health-nursing care deficiencies but cannot take preventative action.
Only the health secretary and the director general of the health services directorate general will be informed. As a result, there is a significant barrier to punishing medical professionals working in the private sector, and the incidence of professional negligence in private clinics continues to rise.
The term’medical profession’ has not been added explicitly to Section 2, whereas it was added to Section 2 (1) (o) of the Consumer Protection Act of India 1986 in 1995. In the case Indian Medical Association v. VP Shantha (3 CPR (1995) 412), the Supreme Court determinedly added the health profession to the scope of the Consumer Protection Act. In fact, this term should be added to our statute so that it is clear that victims of medical malpractice must go to the consumer court to seek justice.
Although it has been questioned whether medical care should be viewed as a product, medical negligence litigation has been credited with bringing about safer practices in the provision of health care in neighboring India, where cases of medical negligence have been significantly reduced.
Therefore, amendments may be made to the Consumer Protection Act of Bangladesh to make it effective and adaptable to medical negligence litigation, so that the state may provide patients with assurance of improvement in the health care delivery system addressing the public health’s common good.
Tort actions and Medical Malpractice:
Tort actions were recently introduced in Bangladesh, but they are not yet well-established in our legal system. This is due to the fact that tort law is not codified and because Section 9 of the Code of Civil Procedure 1908 authorizes a civil court to hear all civil cases and gives courts the authority to apply tort law as an inalienable part of the principles of justice, equity, and good conscience.
In tort law, as opposed to criminal law, a claim is an action for the recovery of damages (i.e., monetary compensation) that seeks to compensate the harms suffered by a person as a result of the intentional or unintentional act of another, as opposed to sending the wrongdoer to prison.
The individual claiming damages (the claimant) may be the primary or secondary victim. Negligence is the legal term for the failure to do (or to refrain from doing) something that a “reasonable person” would have done in the same circumstances, which has been interpreted to protect others from foreseeable risks of harm. When medical negligence occurs, negligence claims may be filed against physicians and other medical professionals.
Medical Negligence And Medical Malpractice Law In Bangladesh 35
In Bangladesh, it is a relatively new trend to pursue damages as a tort claim solely on equitable grounds, without relying on statutory provisions. We hope to become familiar with the application of the tort law principle in medical negligence cases more frequently than in the past, and then we can expect to ensure accountability for medical negligence on a larger scale.
Under the current legal structure, there is no codified law on medical negligence, and in the absence of a developed tort regime, the laws on negligence are scattered and general. The sections 304A and 336 of the Penal Code 1860 penalize and define negligence as conduct that “endangers human life or the personal safety of others.”
The Bangladesh Medical and Dental Council Act of 2010 penalizes those who falsely represent themselves to be medical or dental practitioners (section 28), (ii) use any such name, designation, description, or symbol that others could reasonably believe to be true (section 29), and (iii) prescribe medication that has not been approved by the government (section 30).
In addition to penalizing negligence, Sections 52 and 53 of the Consumer Protection Act of 2009 significantly empower the Director-General of the Directorate for Consumer Rights Protection to take action against “anti-consumer activities.”
Lack of specificity in the jurisdiction of Medical Malpractice law in Bangladesh:
Despite these legal provisions – albeit dispersed – at our disposal to secure justice, our legal system has yet to develop a jurisprudence allowing recourse for citizens who have been negligently treated by healthcare service providers. In recent years, however, courts have been proactive in compensating victims in egregious cases of medical negligence. In 2011, Mr. Justice AHM Shamsuddin Chowdhury Manik and Mr. Justice Jahangir Hossain ordered Labaid Hospital to compensate the widow of Dhaka University professor Mridul Kanti Chakrabarty, who died due to delayed medical treatment and alleged hospital negligence.
In 2017, the Suo Moto ruling by Madam Justice Salma Masud Chowdhury and Mr. Justice AKM Zahirul Haque ordered respondents to pay the victim Tk. 9 lakhs in compensation for falsely representing himself as a certified doctor and performing surgery on the victim while leaving pieces of gauge inside her stomach, causing her interminable suffering and additional medical expenses.
In jurisdictions such as the United Kingdom, however, there are established bases for calculating claims arising from personal injury and medical negligence. Instruments such as the Judicial College Guidelines (JCG) and Ogden tables standardize the amount of compensation for different degrees of injury to different parts of the body and take into account other factors, such as the loss of income and follow-up expenses of victims recovering from the negligent act.
In India, despite similarly dispersed laws, the Court and the Maharashtra Medical Council (MMC), a quasi-judicial body with significant authority, regularly hear medical negligence cases.
Under the Consumers Rights Protection Act of 2009, the specialist is not liable for every injury sustained by a patient due to medical negligence.
Medical Negligence And Medical Malpractice Law In Bangladesh 36
As it were, he is responsible for the consequences of a breach of his obligation. After establishing the existence of an obligation, the aggrieved party must then demonstrate the breach of obligation and its cause. Different sections of the Consumers Rights Protection Act of 2009 contain corrective amendments to safeguard consumer rights.
Section 52 specifies the punishment for any act that endangers the life or safety of consumers. Section 53 penalizes the act of carelessness that results in loss of life or bodily harm. In addition, section 45 provides penalties for the sale or delivery of substandard services.
According to the Bangladesh Medical and Dental Council Act of 2010, medical malpractice is:
According to Section 23 of the Bangladesh Medical and Dental Council Act of 2010, the Council may revoke the registration of any doctor, dentist, or medical assistant who is found to be responsible for improper conduct or violation of this act. However, the act itself has not clearly communicated the offenses committed by the specialist. In addition, Section 30 outlines the penalties for endorsing prohibited drugs.
Conforming to the Contract Act of 1872 for breach of contract or benefit, if the patient is entitled to compensation for any loss or damage caused by the contract violator. This compensation is not to be provided for any indirect or remote loss or harm sustained as a result of the breach.
The Specific Relief Act of 1877 can also issue temporary and permanent injunctions against medical professionals or armies that violate legally binding obligations. In addition, under the law of tort, carelessness as a fortuitous or gracious obligation, restorative professionals or authorities may be liable for damages.
A number of statutes are either directly or indirectly associated with medical practice. The Vaccination Act of 1880, the Drugs Act of 1940, and the Eye Surgery Act (Restriction) The statute, 1960 The Pharmacy Ordinance of 1976, the Drug (Control) Ordinance of 1982, the Medical Practice and Private Clinics and Laboratories (Regulation) Ordinance of 1982, the Bangladesh Unani and Ayurveda Practitioners Ordinance of 1983, the Human Organ Transplantation Act of 1999, etc.

Private equity (PE) refers to the investment of capital into private companies that are not publicly traded on stock exchanges. The private equity industry in Bangladesh is still in its early stages of development, but it has been showing steady growth in recent years.
Bangladesh has a rapidly growing economy, with a GDP growth rate of around 7% in recent years. The country has a large and young population, a growing middle class, and a rapidly expanding consumer market. These factors make Bangladesh an attractive destination for private equity investment.
Private Equity Industry in Bangladesh:
The private equity industry in Bangladesh is dominated by domestic players, with a few international firms also active in the market. The main sectors that attract private equity investment in Bangladesh are consumer goods and services, healthcare, education, and infrastructure.
One of the main challenges facing the private equity industry in Bangladesh is the lack of a well-developed legal and regulatory framework. The country’s legal system is not fully developed and there are significant gaps in the laws and regulations that govern private equity transactions. This makes it difficult for private equity firms to invest in Bangladesh and for companies to access the capital they need to grow.
Private Equity Law In Bangladesh 42
For example, there are no specific rules or regulations for the registration and reporting of private equity funds, and there is no specific legal framework for the protection of minority shareholders. This lack of legal protection makes it difficult for private equity firms to invest in Bangladesh and for companies to access the capital they need to grow.
Another challenge facing the private equity industry in Bangladesh is the lack of a developed exit market. Private equity firms typically invest in companies with the expectation of exiting their investments after a certain period of time. However, in Bangladesh, there are very few options for private equity firms to exit their investments. This makes it difficult for private equity firms to achieve a good return on their investments.
New Rules for the regulation of Private equity fund and venture capital fund in Bangladesh:
In June 2015, the Bangladesh Securities and Exchange Commission approved new rules for private equity and venture capital firms, allowing them to pool funds and make equity investments in non-listed companies.
To create and manage funds for equity financing, private equity and venture capital firms must adhere to the Alternative Investment Rules.
The fund managers, who must be registered with the BSEC, will raise capital from eligible investors, which could include institutions, high-net-worth individuals, and foreign fund managers.
Private Equity Law In Bangladesh 43
The funds cannot be raised through a public issue or an initial public offering; they can only be raised through a private placement and, unlike other mutual funds, will not be listed or traded on stock exchanges.
BSEC approved the draft Alternative Investment Rules and published it on the commission’s website as well as in national dailies for public comment.

The government has also set up a number of initiatives to support the private equity industry, such as the Bangladesh Private Equity and Venture Capital Association (BPEVCA).
In addition to the government’s efforts, there are also a number of private sector organizations working to support the private equity industry in Bangladesh. For example, the Bangladesh Venture Capital and Private Equity Association (BVCA) works to promote the private equity industry in Bangladesh by fostering relationships between private equity firms, companies, and investors.
Plans to establish a stock exchange for SME
Despite the challenges, the private equity industry in Bangladesh has the potential to play a significant role in the country’s economic development. The large and growing population, the rapidly expanding consumer market, and the government’s efforts to improve the investment climate all make Bangladesh an attractive destination for private equity investment. As the private equity industry in Bangladesh continues to grow and develop, it will become an increasingly important source of capital for companies looking to expand and grow.
In conclusion, the private equity industry in Bangladesh is still in its early stages of development but it has been showing steady growth in recent years. The country has a rapidly growing economy, with a GDP growth rate of around 7% in recent years.

Private Equity Law In Bangladesh 44
Despite these challenges, the private equity industry in Bangladesh has the potential to play a significant role in the country’s economic development. The government of Bangladesh is taking steps to improve the investment climate and a number of private sector organizations are working to support the private equity industry in Bangladesh.
The government of Bangladesh has announced plans to establish a stock exchange for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that will provide a platform for SMEs to raise capital. This will likely increase opportunities for private equity firms to invest in SMEs and provide a viable exit option for private equity firms.

As the private equity industry in Bangladesh continues to grow and develop, it is likely that more laws and regulations related to private equity will be put in place and more options for exits will be created.
Amendments made to the Alternative Investment Rules in 2020
The definition of “eligible investor” and “investor” has been expanded to incorporate “founda’ons” and “approved gratuity funds”.

The required opera)on track record for eligibility of “private equity fund” has been increased by a year to three years.
The amendment here has enabled “venture capital funds” to invest in companies that have already been in opera)on for three years instead of the earlier limita)on of two years. This will broaden the investable op)ons of “venture capital funds”
Amendments have been made to prepare financial statements as per Interna)onal Financial Repor)ng Standards as applicable in Bangladesh and the audited financials to be prepared as per Interna)onal Standards on Audi)ng
Amendment has been made to ensure that the fund manager should obtain consent from the trustee before disbursement of fund to any non-listed securi)es of porGolio companies.

Apart from cons)tu)ve documents, financial documents and other documents will have to be shared to eligible investors with the added flexibility of being shared in electronic form instead of printed hard copy.
A check has been placed to ensure that the fund manager cannot share the profit from the fund twice as performance fee.

Although all unlisted companies in Bangladesh are assumed to be supported by private equity, Bangladesh Regulator introduced formal private equity venture capital in 2015 through the Bangladesh Securities and Exchange Commission (Alternative Investment) Rules, 2015.
