1.4 Lakh Tonnes of Coarse Rice Unsold in Telangana

In Telangana, a lot of coarse rice, about 1.4 lakh tonnes, is not being sold.

This is happening because the government decided to give fine rice to people through the public distribution system.

Now, the coarse rice is piling up in different places, and there are worries that it might go bad.

The people who have this rice stored are responsible for it.

The government has asked for tenders to take back and auction the rice, but the dealers are worried about the condition of the rice.

The government says they give rice to all dealers, but some people might be getting rice from other shops because of a portability facility.
