The DDC made the payment in 13 days with the rise in the sale of milk products in the month of Baisakh.
Acting General Manager of the Corporation, Rajendra Prasad Adhikari told that it was easier to pay the dues to the farmers with an increase in the sale of milk products (milk, curd, paneer, mohi, lassi and ice-cream) with the onset of summer season.
