Hyderabad: Telangana rice ki demand mulk bhar mein tezi se barh rahi hai aur is waqt yeh 8 riyasaton ko export kiya ja raha hai, yeh baat Food Corporation of India (FCI) Consultative Committee ki chairperson aur BJP MP D.K. Aruna ne Thursday ko kahi.
HACA Bhavan mein Telangana state consultative committee ke pehle meeting ki sadaarat karte hue, D.K. Aruna ne kaha ke FCI ke operations, procurement mein darpaish rukawatein, godown ki dekhbhal aur storage ki kami ke masail par officials ke saath tabsira hua. Unka kehna tha ke Telangana mein anaaj ki procurement har saal barh rahi hai, jo ke Telangana-milled rice ki market mein behtar pasand ki wajah se hai.
Aruna ne kaha ke state mein procurement volume mein izafa ke bawajood godowns ki kami ab bhi ek bara masla hai. Support prices barhne ki wajah se zyada kisaan seedha FCI ko apna anaaj farokht kar rahe hain, is wajah se naye warehousing infrastructure ki sakht zarurat mehsoos ki ja rahi hai.
Unhone ye bhi wazahat ki ke 2014 se centre ne anaaj ki procurement ki zimmedariyaan states ko delegate kar di hain, magar process ki poori funding ab bhi centre se mil rahi hai. Naye godowns ke liye key areas mein construction proposals taiyaar kiye ja rahe hain.

Unhone quarterly reviews ke liye regular meetings ka elan kiya aur unki chairperson appointment par centre ka shukriya ada kiya.
