Coronavirus in India: Lockdown hits food supply, prices rising
In the national capital, prices have gone up by 10% to 20%, multiple estimates show. This is despite the government's assurance that vehicles carrying essential items are exempt in the lockdown.
IT professional Mansi Upadhyay, who lives in CR Park, the past few days have been really tough. "It's extremely difficult to get grocery and other basic commodities. What's available is non-branded and much costlier," she said.
Similarly, Gaurav Sharma of Jor Bagh, another South Delhi neighbourhood, said he has to pay almost 20% to 30% more for whatever goods are still available in limited quantities. "It's going to be really hard in coming days. Prices of vegetables and fruits were already high and now rice, pulses and flour are also costlier."
Vendors have warned there will be very limited supplies in future as fewer trucks with goods are entering Delhi, he added. Upadhyay and Sharma are not alone. There are thousands others who are feeling the same pinch amid the 21-day nationwide lockdown announced from March 25 to April 14 to check the spread of Coronavirus.
First commodities became scarce due to panic-buying and hoarding, triggering a price rise. Prices then started skyrocketing as goods trucks remain halted, there are no fresh supplies and migrant labourers have been heading home in most parts of the country.
SCENES AT DELHI MARKETS
In the national capital, prices have gone up by 10% to 20%, multiple estimates show. This is despite the government's assurance that vehicles carrying essential items are exempt in the lockdown.
At Lahori Gate Market, Delhi's biggest wholesale hub for foodgrains, Naya Bazaar and Sadar Bazaar, most shops had no stocks and were closed. Those open had limited supplies at higher rates.
Traders said that since trucks are not operating and workers have gone home, supplies are not coming and doing business is not impossible.
