It is all known knowledge that the Telangana state government has been requesting the centre to buy parboiled rice but the centre is saying that it will only procure raw rice.
Of late, In a meeting, KTR said that “The Centre is trying to hoodwink people, especially farmers, of Telangana. On December 1, 2021, Union Minister G Kishan Reddy said that the Rabi crop, irrespective of whether it’s parboiled rice or raw rice, will be procured by the Centre through FCI like last several decades.”
KTR also said that the Telangana government tried to convince the farmers to go for commercial crops instead of paddy in Rabi season as the centre refused to procure it last year.
Kishan Reddy also stated that he will get the Global Centre for Traditional Medicine in Telangana. Now, Kishan Reddy maintained that the “United Nations” decided to establish the Centre in Gujarat because an Ayurvedic University already existed there. He has been criticising the Telangana government for delaying the approval of necessary land.
