Milk prices in Karnataka will increase by Rs 4 per litre starting from April 1, said state Cooperation Minister K N Rajanna on Thursday.<\/p>\n
The Minister said the price increase comes in response to the pressure from milk federations and farmers.<\/p>\n
Addressing reporters here, he said, “The decision to hike the prices is by the milk federation, they were asking for Rs 5 hike per litre, the government agreed and decided for Rs 4 hike from April 1. The entire Rs 4 that has been hiked should go to farmers…” The milk price revision comes in the wake of hikes in bus and metro fares, as well as power tariffs.<\/p>\n
Earlier, Karnataka Milk Federation (KMF) chairman Bheema Naik too had hinted at the possibility of a hike in the milk prices.<\/p>\n
Karnataka Milk Federation (KMF) markets its dairy products under the ‘Nandini’ brand.<\/p>\n
In 2024, the KMF had hiked the milk price by Rs 2 per packet and increased the quantity per packet by 50ml, KMF has been maintaining that the price increase in 2024 was not a hike as the quantity of milk supplied had also increased.<\/p>\n
At present, regular Nandini toned milk (blue packet) of 1,050 ml is priced at Rs 44.<\/p>\n
