Bajra weakens in thin trade

In restricted activity, bajra prices declined by Rs 10 per quintal in the wholesale grains market today due to reduced industrial offtake against adequate stocks.

Traders said reduced offtake by consuming industries against sufficient stocks helped bajra prices to trade lower.

In the national capital, bajra prices declined by Rs 10 to Rs 830-840 per quintal.
