Milk rate increased by Rs20 per litre in Karachi
KARACHI (Web Desk) – The Karachi Dairy and Cattle Farmers Association on Sunday increased the milk prices by Rs20 per litre.
As per details, the milk is already being sold at Rs220/kg in Karachi against the official rate of Rs180 and now the Karachi dairy farmers have further increased the price by Rs20 per litre.
In his statement, Dairy Farmers leader Shakir Umar Gujjar said that the commissioner had twice convened a meeting for milk prices but he himself remained absent.
He said the rise in milk prices was announced in conjunction with stakeholders، From July 1, the x-farm rate will increase by Rs600 per 40kg of milk.
However, the citizens argue that with inflation already on the rise, this additional burden will make it even more challenging for them to make ends meet.
The responsibility for enforcing the official price of milk lies with the Commissioner Karachi and his team.
