West Bengal Extends Potato Storage Period

The government of West Bengal has decided to keep potatoes in cold storages for a longer time.

Usually, they have to be taken out by 30 November, but this year they can stay until 31 December.

This is because there are still a lot of potatoes in storage, and they want to make sure people have enough to eat in December and January 2026.

The cold storage owners can charge a little extra money for keeping the potatoes longer.

This decision was made to help farmers and make sure there are enough potatoes in the market.
