Civilians of Holhudhoo gathered near the Island Office

Some civilians of Holhudhoo gathered near the island office and urged to give them an empty land area to build a citizens pharmacy.
There problem is due to the expensive medicines being sold to them from the only pharmacy in the island owned by the island chief’s brother. Their claim is that they could sell medicines to the poor islanders in a cheaper rate. Also it would be competitive and a change in the prices will be seen due to it. Everyone would buy the cheap available medicine. Due to this they’d be forced to decrease the rates.
Sources say that they were gathered near the office till sunset. Some said that they even entered the office several times to get a reply. But the island chief said that he called to the Urban Development Board and they rejected to give a land. But later when called to them by a civilian, they said that nothing has been reported to them on the issue. Furthermore they said that it is upto the island office to take a decision.
It is reported that the atoll chief is also to come to the island to solve the problem.
