Nin-basmati rice prices have fallen about 10% in March following the government’s move to sell cheaper rice under its ‘Bharat’ label and ask traders to declare stock of rice every week to ensure there’s no hoarding of the most consumed staple in the country, said traders.
There is an apprehension among traders that the government could be stricter
ahead of the general election, they said, adding that they do not expect the
restrictions to be eased before the election results are declared.
