Stop import of Turkish apples, say HP growers
The New Indian Express Kochi
|May 18, 2025
THE apple growers of Himachal Pradesh, who play a key role in making an apple economy worth ₹5,000 crore in the hill state, demanded on Saturday that India halt the import of Turkish apples and avoid further reducing the import tariff on Washington apples.
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.
