What happened
The Mysuru Hotel Owners’ Association has asked the State government to immediately withdraw an ₹8 per litre increase in milk prices. The association stated that the hike would further burden the hotel industry and ultimately increase food prices for consumers. The industry is already struggling with rising costs for cooking gas, sugar, rice, and wages.

Why it matters
The association argues that the government should provide direct subsidies or financial assistance to dairy farmers rather than raising milk prices and passing the cost onto consumers. The sector provides employment and creates a market for agricultural produce.
A local association in Karnataka is seeking policy changes from the Chief Minister.
