Dal prices survey is worrying

I didnt realise that the Toor Dal Survey of Localcircles had come out as I was away.

https://www.localcircles.com/a/press/page/tur-dal-prices

Prices are on fire and now Tata tur Dal is 209 (just bought yday from south delhi)

And 4 in 10 households cutting back consumption ought to worry govt. What happens to protein requirements of vegetarians??

People please share these findings if u want action to happen otherwise godi media will just hide this news and keep talking about ajit and sharad pawar. more

Annual Inflation is more then 10%. It will be here and there. We have to plan accordingly. These things are making life difficult for Non Pensioner Senior Citizens, whose sources are limited and can not take care of heavy inflation. more

The issue is production is definitely short and supply is being controlled by middleman and big shots like adanis now. Most importantly new generation doesn't want to grow paddy, hence is the issue. more  
Adani's share of business in food grains is around 10%. Are 90% others consumer friendly ? more  
On reading your post to-day morning I just went through the online Apps of D Mart, Ji Mart and Tata Neu for groceries just to ensure to-days price of pulses quoted in these Apps. I furnish below the prices noted down by me from these apps: D Mart Tur Dal 155/- a KG " Prem,Gujarat 162/- a KG Moong Dal 136.90 a KG/147/- (whole) Chana Dal 79/- a KG Masoor Dal 105/- a KG Jio Mart Tur Dal 297/- 2 KGs Moong Dal 63/- 500 gms Chana Dal 146/- (2 KGs) Masoor Dal 59/- (500 gms) Tata Neu Tur Dal 7+97/- (5 KGs)/85/- (500 GMs)/162.50 (1KG) Tur Dal unpolished 190/- (1 KG) Tur Dal(Organic) 92/- (500 GMs) Moong Dal 280/- (2 KGs) 142/- (1KG) Chana Dal 77.90 1 KG Masoor Dal 70/- (500 GMs) The prices quoted above were taken from the respective sites to-day morning. From these prices, it is clear that the situation is not out of control and the price rises, if any, would not be more than 5% to 10% over the prices of two months ago or so and its the trend of our country and every year such things happen. One should not be surprised if the prices go down even below the prices of two months ago within next one or two months. Moreover, we are dependent on import of pulses, which also makes the difference. Just you see the prices of edible oil. The prices have come down by 30% to 40% during last one month or so and likely to go down further in the coming months, if there is satisfactory monsoon. I mean to say that the rise in the prices of pulses is not unusual and one should not be worried on this count. more  
Correct narrative. more  
it is not the question of opposition? it is the question of plan for industry and employment through infrastructure development and opportunities to use. more
