Summary:
Most of the vegetables and fruits supply in the national Capital come from states like Himachal Pradesh, Punjab, Haryana, Uttarakhand. It is very troublesome for not only the public but also for the retailers to buy things at such high prices. While the wholesale rate goes up by Rs 5 to Rs 10, the retail vendors further spike them to earn their share of profit. Seasonal vegetables such as okra, capsicum, beans have seen a spike in their prices by an average of Rs 15 to Rs 20. Fruits such as mango, watermelon, plums have also gone beyond the reach of the common man in this rainy season..
