Millers irked over space crunch

Kharar, March 5

Around 17 millers in Kurali are facing difficulties while delivering rice to the Food Corporation of India (FCI) due to shortage of space.

They have written to the FCI Divisional Manager stating that most of the rice millers have not delivered even a single wagon of rice from the past 20 days due to space crunch. The letter states that 35,000 MT rice was yet to be delivered to the FCI by millers. They said as there is no contractor in Kurali to load rice in a special rack and as a result, the rack has been diverted to Morinda centre. — OC
