Alipurduar, 27th December: Bhutanese oranges have started appearing with the onset of winter in various markets of the Dooars area, including Jaigaon, a town bordering Bhutan. However, due to low production this year, Bhutanese oranges are being sold at inflated prices, resulting in fewer buyers.
Reportedly, every year a crowd of buyers flock to the said market to buy oranges. Similar to previous years, a long queue of shops selling Bhutanese oranges has been set up along the roads in the border town of Jaigaon. However, the buyers remained off the market.
