Nepali Congress Chief Whip Niskal Rai Draws Government's Attention to Market Challenges in Ilam's Tea and Dairy Industries

Ilam. Nepali Congress Chief Whip Niskal Rai has drawn the government's attention to the challenges faced by tea and dairy industries operating in Ilam due to the lack of proper marketing. He stated that despite a significant number of industries, farmers and entrepreneurs are not receiving comparative returns for their production. Providing information about the industrial situation in Ilam, Chief Whip Rai mentioned that more than 15 tea factories, over 150 'chhurpi' industries, and hundreds of dairy sweets (lollipops) industries are in operation there. Despite such a large number of industries, farmers are in distress because the produced goods are not properly managed and marketed. Speaking specifically about the problems in the dairy sector, he accused the government body, Dairy Development Corporation (DDC), of withholding payments to farmers. He said, 'According to DDC's own data, farmers have not received payment for the last three and a half months. Farmers are currently owed approximately 500 million rupees.' He stated that the prolonged non-receipt of payment for production has affected the daily lives and business cycles of the farmers. Rai mentioned that due to the lack of payment, farmers engaged in commercial animal husbandry are facing difficulties in paying bank installments and purchasing animal feed. He demanded that the government ensure proper marketing and immediately release the withheld amount to resolve the farmers' problems.
