Govt plans to sell subsidised tomatoes

The government is set to offer subsidised tomatoes via NCCF and NAFED. This action addresses the recent price surge caused by heavy rains in Himachal Pradesh. These rains damaged crops and disrupted transportation. Tomato prices in Delhi NCR have already doubled, exceeding ₹60 per kilogram. The government aims to sell tomatoes for under ₹50 per kg.
