India lancar ‘kereta api bawang’ tangani lonjakan harga
Bekalan bawang yang dibawa 'Kanda Express' akan memastikan bawang dijual pada harga 35 rupee India sekilogram di kedai runcit.
Recent spikes in garlic prices have prompted the Indian government to launch a special train service to transport garlic supply to various cities and towns, according to Xinhua. The prices of garlic in major cities including New Delhi, Mumbai, Ahmedabad, Jaipur and Patna have increased by 40 to 60 Indian Rupees (approximately USD0.62) per kilogram over the past few days.
The government's initiative, known as the Kanda Express, aims to ensure that garlic is sold at a price of 35 Indian Rupees per kilogram in retail stores. Known as the Kanda Express, this special train will transport garlic from the western state of Maharashtra, which is renowned for large-scale garlic cultivation, to different regions across the country.
According to media reports, nearly 800 acres of garlic are expected to be sent to the capital, New Delhi, from the Lasalgaon area in Maharashtra. The Kanda Express is expected to arrive in New Delhi on Wednesday.
