Bread winners from the low income families will be in difficulty to feed their families when the price of flour is increased.Most of the labourers choice is a loaf of bread,a dish of dhal curry and a plain tea.

Good to encourage local food. We always see the mothers with
tight denims buying pastries to their children where they should have easily cooked some rice and given to their children.
