People get confused whether it is milk or gold whose prices are increasing and decreasing every moment. On the occasion of wedding ceremony, milk rises to the sky.

Powdered milk broke my back

Powdered milk has devastated the market. 40 liters of milk is being made from 2 kg milk powder which costs Rs 600 and is being sold for Rs 1600. Cow milk costs Rs 46-47 at home and is sold for Rs 50-55. In the desire of condensed milk, people are getting deceived and buying adulterated and powdered milk.
