Show-cause notice issued to APMC Secretary

A show-cause notice has been issued to the Secretary, Agricultural Produce Marketing Committee (APMC), Shimla and Kinnaur, over alleged irregularities in the renewal of licences of commission agents. “The matter is under investigation,” said a senior government official.

While the Secretary had been transferred back to the Agriculture Department, another APMC official had been transferred elsewhere. The matter came to light when a commission agent lodged a complaint against the APMC officials regarding the renewal of his licence.
