The millers have raised concerns over the delay in lifting old stocks from previous seasons, which is affecting the timely processing of the new paddy. Additionally, issues surrounding the procurement and pricing of the PR 126 variety, a prominent type of paddy in Punjab, are also on the agenda for discussion.
