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.

Smallest coin


When the Reserve Bank of India makes it clear by its notice that no coins, including the ₹ 1 and ₹ 10, have been abolished, there is no reason on the part of shopkeepers for its out-and-out rejection. The little ₹ 1 coin remains in circulation.

Some are so impudent as they show their flat refusal to accept this very significant coin. However, this is a blatantly wrong practice. They appear to run their business in a totally opposite manner. 

They seem to carry on with their particular criteria. They neither are ready to accept nor return the small coin in balance. They are supposed to run their different rule in daily transactions. 

The Reserve Bank of India warned people if they continued to do so, they could face significant consequences. However, some still believe the ₹1 coin has duly not been in circulation. 

 This might be interpreted as an insult to the country's coinage. Denying acceptance may result in jail time or a fine. According to reports, the coin was not stopped.

Perhaps non-acceptance stems not only from the shopkeeper's perceived pettiness but also from their mental peculiarities and their eccentricities as well. 

Customers face rejection despite their immediate objections and frequently bend down to separate standards about everyday money transactions. This thing certainly encourages merchants to flout the established rule directly.
