Govt to Resume Wheat E-Auction Amid Surplus

Govt to Resume Wheat E-Auction Amid Surplus

The government is going to start selling wheat through online auctions again.

They stopped doing this a few months ago because not many people were buying.

Now, they have a lot of wheat stored and want to sell some of it.

The wheat they sell is cheaper than what you can usually find in the market.

Some people are worried that selling so much wheat might make the prices go down even more.

The government also has a lot of rice and plans to sell a record amount of it this year.

They have so much rice stored that it's more than three times what they usually keep.
