He, however, said the common people will continue to get milk at Rs 55 to Rs 60 per litre.</p> <p>"The khap today took a decision in which we have asked farmers to sell milk at the rate of Rs 100 per litre to government cooperative societies. For the common man, this will continue to be sold between Rs 55 and Rs 60 per litre," he said.</p> <p>&nbsp;Emphasising that the Centre is not listening to farmers' demand of repealing the agrarian laws and has also been increasing fuel prices, Petwar said, "We want to awaken the government. They should repeal the farm laws and bring down fuel prices.</p> <p>"Farmers are adversely hit by rising diesel prices. Farmers not only grow crops, but they also rear animals which produce milk," he said, adding that the union government should realise that farmers are producers who can increase these prices.</p> <p>(With Agency Inputs)</p>
