New committee meets in bid to reform 'wasteful' food corporation

2014-09-11 15:31:31| Agriculture - Topix.net

A high-level committee has met for the first time to investigate a restructure of the often-beleaguered Food Corporation of India as the food-grains authority looks to strengthen and integrate its supply chain. The FCI is the government agency charged with procuring and distributing grain, and is central to India's Food Security Act, which was brought in by the former Congress-led government to supply discounted commodities to at least 800m of the country's poor.
