The Bharat Dal scheme was introduced last year to offer pulses at cheaper prices when inflation soared
peas play a crucial role in India's food inflation. While the pace of price rise for the key staple and a source of protein eased in October, demand continues to outstrip production. The output of pulses in India rose to 24.5 million tonnes (mt) in FY24 from 16.3mt in FY16, but was short of the demand that increased to about 27mt.
The Bharat Dal scheme was introduced last year to offer pulses at cheaper prices when inflation in the category had soared to double digits. The first phase was rolled out in July last year due to lower gram (chana) production and ended in June 2024. The second phase began in October this year.
