Maharashtra: Milk vans under 'police supervision' as dairy farmers continue their strike
Milk tankers were stopped and the content emptied on roads in several districts of Maharashtra by protesters demanding a hike in the procurement price.
Farmers' organisations are demanding a hike of Rs 5 per litre in the milk procurement price and have decided to suspend the supply to Mumbai and Pune from Monday.
Swabhimani Shetkari Sanghatana chief Raju Shetti, who is spearheading the protest, said: "Farmers sell milk to dairies at Rs 17 per litre. After processing it, the dairies package it in pouches and sell it at a minimum rate of Rs 42 per litre. The difference in earnings has not been passed on to the farmers."
