Telangana Urges Central Government to Procure 30 LMT of Parboiled Rice

On April 17, the Telangana state government aggressively petitioned the central administration to officially procure 30 Lakh Metric Tonnes LMT of parb

On April 17, the Telangana state government aggressively petitioned the central administration to officially procure 30 Lakh Metric Tonnes LMT of parboiled rice for the upcoming 202526 agricultural crop season.
