Pricey vegetables bring tough time

We agree that the most recent difficult time for the common people was brought on by more expensive vegetables, which made them reflect on what our beloved everyday precious life now entails. The surprising circumstance has become a difficult period to endure. Due to several circumstances, vegetable prices are currently high in several places, including Kanpur.  Various common vegetables are now less available and more expensive because of supply chain disruptions, particularly those caused by the rainy climate. Media do not fail to report that rising vegetable prices are practically putting pressure on household finances, particularly for those with lower incomes. Prices for vegetables vary based on terrain and local market conditions, even though they are often pricey. According to the Economic Survey 2024–25, unfavourable weather conditions, such as unexpected rainfall and prolonged heatwaves, have impacted crop output and created supply shortages, which have forced prices high ...

Monkey's ravage


It is quite interesting to see how a sparrow quenches its thirst by having a drink on the lotus leaf and beating the heat with its playful splashing and chirping on a warm day.

Up to 1,100 quintals of sugar worth Rs 35 lakh were allegedly harmed by the rain and the monkeys at a sugar mill in western UP's Aligarh. 

Reports firmly state that an audit assessment found the sugar mill employees accountable for this brazen-faced setback. Approximately exact report in this regard has duly been forwarded to the appropriate authorities. 

In fact, it has been said that in thirty days, monkeys consumed 1100 quintals of sugar of almost Rs 35 lakh. These reported accusations were denied by the team that arrived to investigate. 

The severe enquiries would certainly bring perfection in fact findings. Undeniably there goes the blame game but how long will it actually prevail? 

Admittedly, there remains a lot of fear of monkeys in the sugar factory, according to the officials. It is unclear why the department remains unoccupied while so much sugar is wasted by monkeys entering the sugar mill precincts in such large quantities. 

The department's excessively patient attitude eventually led to the enormous amount of sugar becoming omnipresent as the audit brought this strange news. As a result, there has been a protest in strict favour of fact-finding.
