Cases Filed Against Rice Mills Over CMR Delivery Defaults
Officials in Mahabubabad district say some rice mills did not give the government all the rice they owed.
The rice is called Custom Milled Rice, or CMR.
Cases have been filed against five mills.
Three more mills are also facing action under Mission K-100.
One recently named mill is Dhanalakshmi Industries.
Officials said the mills were sent notices asking them to pay what they owed.
They said the notices were not answered.
The government plans to keep using legal and recovery measures when mills do not meet their obligations.
Authorities registered cases against five rice mills in Mahabubabad district for failing to deliver Custom Milled Rice.
Three additional mills face action under the government’s ‘Mission K-100’ initiative.
