Pune :<\/p>\n\n\n\n
While the New Year has been welcomed by people with joy and enthusiasm, it has also brought some unwelcome news for households. The cost of everyday essentials, including chapati and bhakari\u2014staples in many homes\u2014is set to rise, adding to the financial burden of daily living.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Pune City-District Flour Mill Owners Association has announced a hike in milling rates for wheat and jowar, essential grains used for making chapati and bhakari. The decision, driven by rising operational costs, was made during a recent meeting chaired by Dilip Rananware, president of the Hadapsar division of the Flour Mill Owners Association.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In the meeting, a proposal to increase milling rates was tabled, citing soaring electricity bills and the rising cost of spare parts for grinding machines. The proposal was met with unanimous approval from the members. As a result, the milling rate for wheat and jowar has been increased to Rs 8 per kilogram, while milling rates for all types of pulses have been revised to Rs 10 per kilogram.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The new rates came into effect from January 1. Explaining the rationale behind the hike, Rananware stated that this decision was necessary to offset the growing expenses related to electricity and machine maintenance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The meeting also saw active participation from Vice President Amol Memane, Secretary Pramod Walhekar, members Dattatray Ghule and Ganesh Mane, and others.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
