Civil Supplies Minister Gangula Kamalakar has requested the Food Corporation of India (FCI) to provide more space, and increase the rack movement without any delay. He said that the Union government must not escape from its responsibility of procuring paddy from farmers.
The Minister was talking to the millers from across the State here on Wednesday at the Secretariat. Civil Supplies Commissioner Anil Kumar was also present.
The millers informed the Minster that the FCI has been rejecting the rice being supplied by them, even fortified rice kernels, stating it’s low in quality, besides not providing storage.
