Prices of some food items rising: Pawar by Sandeep Joshi


Union Minister of Agriculture, Consumer Affairs, Food and Public Distribution Sharad Pawar on Friday said retail prices of some food items like pulses, edible oil, milk and vegetables have been rising in the last six months.

“There are few items (essential commodities) where there is no improvement in prices…retail prices of pulses such as urad dal and moong dal, edible oils like groundnut oil and vanaspati, milk and potato have shown a marginal increase in last six months,” Mr. Pawar said at the Rajya Sabha during Question Hour. The Minister, however, said the government has taken steps to contain food inflation. Prices of urad and moong dal have increased by Rs.3 a kg from Rs.70 and Rs.80 respectively six months back. Similarly, groundnut oil prices are still ruling firm at Rs.115 a kg and milk at Rs.24 a kg. But sugar prices have come down to Rs.30 per kg now.
