Karnataka Farmers Get Higher Milk Rates After Revision
Farmers in Karnataka are now receiving ₹37 to ₹40 per litre of milk, up from ₹30 to ₹33 before the price revision. The farmers' union KRRS has backed the hike and has also asked why the BJP has stayed quiet on rising LPG and fuel prices. The revision follows the milk and curd retail price increase that took effect from November 1.
