The government has decided to import 550,000 metric tons of rice to give a boost to the country’s current food stock.
The Cabinet Committee on Economic Affairs gave its nod in principal to a proposal in this regard moved by the Ministry of Food reducing the tender submission tenure for this.
As per the proposal, the Directorate General of Food now can invite international tender giving 10 days’ time to submit tender for the supply of the bulk rice instead of the normal time of 42 days.
“The committee took the decision to facilitate the emergency import of rice,” said Finance Minister AHM Mustafa Kamal, who presided over the meeting.
