Agartala Jul 06: With prices of vegetables like, tomatoes, green chillies and other vegetables burning a hole in the common people’s pocket, Tripura Pradesh Youth Congress on Thursday placed a deputation to the Sadar Sub-divisional Magistrate Arup Deb demanding his immediate attention in controlling the price of vegetables in city markets.
Speaking to the reporters, one of the youth Congress leaders said, “The unprecedented hike in vegetable price has left the people in despair”.
“Because of a few unscrupulous businessmen, despite an adequate stock of vegetables, prices are soaring high in the city markets which in turn have added to the woes of common people especially the poorer and middle class”, he said.
The youth Congress leader further added, “The district administration must wake up from slumber and play an active role to control such black marketing in city markets which has resulted into this situation”.
However, the SDM, Sadar, assured the members of the delegation that proper raids and visits of administrative team and food department are being conducted in city markets every day to control the situation.
