Telugu Desam Party (TDP) Polit Bureau member Varla Ramaiah has urged the Additional DGs of the Anti Corruption Bureau (ACB) and the Vigilance & Enforcement (V&E) to conduct a thorough inquiry into the alleged large-scale smuggling of PDS rice to foreign countries through the Kakinada port.
In separate letters to the officials on Sunday, Mr. Ramaiah stressed the need for an in-depth investigation into the “sudden and suspicious surge” in rice exports from the port in East Godavari district.
Mr. Ramaiah urged the officials to have a closer look at the data pertaining to the exports of rice from the port to destinations abroad.
