Pune: Despite the nationwide protest against farm laws organised today, the Agricultural Produce Market Committee located in Marketyard area remained open today.
APMC market in Pune remained open today but only 174 vehicles of vegetables and fruits arrived which is normally around more than 1000 vehicles a day.
The produce that had been brought to the market was only accepted and kept in stock as no sale of any kind happened today.
“We support farmers’ agitation. But we’ve kept the market open today so farm produce coming in from other states can be stored or else they will rot. It will be sold tomorrow only,” says a local trader, Sachin Paygude.
