Veggie prices soar as rains disrupt lives in Haryana, Punjab

Chandigarh, Oct 11: Rains lashed parts of Haryana and Punjab on Tuesday, leading to a fall in the temperature.

These spells of rain have resulted in supply crunch of some vegetables thus pushing up their prices, according to traders.

A sharp spell of rain lashed Chandigarh and its adjoining towns of Mohali in Punjab and Panchkula in Haryana. Some other parts of the two states also received showers.

Earlier on Monday, rains had lashed a few places in Haryana.

Moderate to heavy rains have lashed several parts of Haryana and some parts of Punjab intermittently during the past fortnight.
