Amidst the tension between India and Pakistan, the government has said that people should not compete to buy the necessary food. The country’s savings are packed. At the same time, the government has advised the merchants not to save and not create it so that there are no problems with prices and distribution to the people. In this row, the National President of All India Food Oil Traders and the National Minister of All India Federation (CAIT) said that people have increased the increased purchase of essential commodities amid increasing stress in India-Pakistan, but we would like to tell the people that there is no shortage of food-related food in the country. He has made a big appeal to the merchants.
There are plenty of grains and foods in India
Thacker said that the government’s savings were packed, with a lot of goods available in Mundis and stores. So don’t buy panic. Considering the increasing tension on the border, the federal government has strong surveillance on the prices of essential matters. The government has clearly stated that actions such as hoarding or profit will not be tolerated and that strict action will be taken under the Essentials Act.
Merchants to fulfill your duty at the time of disaster:
Shankar Thakkar, just as soldiers handle their leads on our borders, the country’s traders who handle the economy, ie, they are handling the country’s distribution. In this clock that came to the country by having a minimum profit, they must provide food and drinks in the form of duty for their citizens.
The country has more than a year of share
In the coming days, regular meetings can be held with stackists, importers, wholesalers and retailers to keep the government’s supplies and prices in the coming days. The country’s food reserves currently contain about 66.17 million tonnes of grains (wheat and rice), more than the total grains (52 million tonnes) distributed by last year’s public distribution system (BTS). That is, there are more than a year of grains in the country.
‘The situation is completely under the control of the government’
The meteorological department has foretold good rainfall and it will normalize both production and supply, the government said. According to the government, the prices of food and drinks are stable in April. By March 2025, the retail inflation rate (CPI) has dropped to 3.34%, which is very low since August 2019. Shankar Thacker has appealed to the people not to buy food than what they need.
There are enough grains and essential ingredients in the country, and the situation is completely controlled. He appealed to all traders and said that no businessman should try to make a profit without recklessly, so that the organization or the government had to take action against traders.
