Tomatoes to be sold at Rs 65/kg amidst soaring prices: Centre
The Daily Guardian|October 09, 2024
In response to the sharp rise in tomato prices, which surged to over Rs 90 per kg in Delhi and NCR, the Centre has launched a relief initiative by selling tomatoes at a subsidized rate of Rs 65 per kg.
Tomatoes to be sold at Rs 65/kg amidst soaring prices: Centre

This move, spearheaded by the National Cooperative Consumers' Federation (NCCF), is an attempt to control the soaring prices caused by prolonged monsoon rains and high humidity in key tomato-producing states like Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, and Maharashtra. These weather conditions have led to supply shortages and quality concerns, making tomatoes a rare and expensive commodity just ahead of the festive season.
