January 20th, 2010 - 2:38 pm ICT by ANI
New Delhi, Jan 20 (ANI): Union Agriculture Minister Sharad Pawar on Wednesday said, the price of milk would increase, as there is a scarcity of milk in north India.
This has come up as another bad news for the common man, who is facing immense problem because of the price rise.
As reported, the sugar price in Delhi had dropped down to Rs 45/kg in the last couple of days earlier it was Rs 47/kg. But in other major cities, the sugar price has climbed by Rs 6 to Rs 8 per kilogram.
On Tuesday, the Bharatiya Janata Party had lashed out at Pawar saying Pawar had released buffer stock ahead of Maharashtra Assembly elections to bring down prices eyeing upon grabbing more votes.
Meanwhile, there are reports that senior BJP leader Lal Krishna Advani will meet Prime Minister Dr Manmohan Singh later in the day to lodge the BJP’s protest against the rise in prices of essential commodities. (ANI)
