Following soaring prices of petrol, diesel, and vegetables, increased dairy prices have disrupted common citizens’ household budgets. Two major milk companies in the country, Amul and Mother Dairy, have announced significant price hikes starting Thursday. Citing rising procurement costs and lower milk supply, Amul has increased milk prices by 2 to 6 rupees per liter. Meanwhile, Mother Dairy has also raised the prices of its liquid milk variants by 2 to 4 rupees per liter. This decision will directly increase the monthly kitchen expenses of millions of families across the country.
