Stop import of Turkish apples, say HP growers

Their resolve follows Turkey openly supporting Pakistan when India launched Operation Sindoor to avenge the Pahalgam terror attack that claimed 26 lives.

Sanyukt Kisan Manch (SKM), Himachal Pradesh, convener Harish Chauhan, said that they will meet Governor Shiv Pratap Shukla on May 20 and hand him a memorandum for PM Narendra Modi demanding a pause on the import of Turkish apples.

He stated that the import of apples from Iran should also be stopped.
