Hyderabad: Apart from Telangana’s demand for government and protest TRS, the center has explained that it will not buy boiled rice from the country.
This center also does not provide clarity on the number of rice to be carried out in the current season.
However, the Government of NDA convinced the minister’s delegation led by Minister of Industry KT Rama Rao that it would increase rice and procurement of rice to a certain extent.
The Telangana government said the central step, in the future, will make ‘boiled rice’ disappear in the state.
The center tells the Telangana government that the final decision on the quantity of rice to be obtained will be announced on November 26 after holding other meetings with officials of the Ministry of Agriculture and Public Distribution System (PDS).
The minister and official delegation consists of KTR, Minister of Agriculture Niranjan Reddy and Civil Equipment Minister Gangula Kamalakar met with the Minister of Food and Public Distribution Pikush Goyal and Agriculture Minister Union Narendra Singh Tomar separately on the problem of procurement of rice caught fire on Tuesday.
The government delegation held a discussion with the United Minister for about three hours.
KTR talks set the annual target of rice procurement officials say even though goyal is busy with American delegation, he takes the time to fulfill the country’s delegation.
During the meeting, KTR talked about setting the annual target of rice procurement at 120 lakh metric tons and increasing the procurement of the current rabbi season of 40 lakh MTs to at least 70 lakh MTs.
In improving the annual target of the procurement of rice, the purchase of 90% of production in the current season, the center said it would overcome the figure with the senior agricultural and PDS department on Wednesday and came with estimates on Thursday.
While the state government has claimed that the extent of rice cultivation in the country in the Kharif season is 62.13 lakh, the center sets up in 58.66 lakh.
KTOR told the Union Minister that once they get clarity about this problem, the state would plan and advise farmers not to go for rice and suggest alternative plants.
The state government appealed to people to wait for clarity from the center of rice cultivation in the upcoming Rabbi season.
The NDA government approved the KCR suggestion that the center must announce the annual procurement target.
While accepting that it is a good suggestion that needs to be implemented throughout the country, the center said since next year, it will announce the annual target for all countries.
The Chairman of the KCR Minister camped in Delhi since Sunday night to sort out the problem of procurement of rice.
He had asked for an appointment to meet him to tell him about this problem.
