Agricultural Produce Market Committee (APMC) traders are on indefinite strike from Tuesday to protest against e-trading. This has caused concerns about a shortage in supply of fruits and vegetables in the city and suburbs. If the strike goes on for more than three days, the prices could skyrocket.

According to APMC officers, traders had consistently opposed the implementation of e-trading, but the government pursued it. Traders have therefore decided to call the indefinite strike against this decision.
