(DNS Report: P. Raja, Bureau Chief, Amaravati)

Amaravati, Dec. 20, 2021 ( DNS On Line) : AP Chief Minister Mr. YS Jaganmohan Reddy held a review on civil supplies and grain procurement at the CM's camp office in Thadepalli on Monday. He conducted a review on purchases of grain and other crops . Definitely the farmer should get the minimum MSP price. "Our government's goal is to get MSP for all farmers," he said. RBKs and officials steps taken towards that. There should be no sloppiness in serving the farmers There should be no data error anywhere Need to interact with farmers often, he said.

There have been no instances in the past where anyone has come forward to buy dyed, stained grain, he added. We are also buying that grain like never before in history

to stand by the farmers: Millers should not have a role in grain purchases The role of millers should be after the purchase: Farmers should not be subjected to scams in grain quality inspection. Exports to other countries should be made directly by the governmentThis will benefit the farmers:

Five staff at RBK for the purchase Each RBK should also have a minimum of five staff to procure grain and crops Technical Assistant, Data Entry Operator, and other staff must be three Each RBK should also have a staff of five in each category. We can go to the farmers and interact with them and make all the necessary arrangements for the purchase Gunny bags, transport vehicles and necessary arrengments should be arranged by these five personnel Farmers should not be in trouble

.

Payments within 21 days ...The CM should take appropriate steps to ensure that payments are made to them within 21 days of purchase of the grain Officers should pay special attention to this and see to it that payments are not delayed: CM orders Are all shopping malls open? Or not? Focus on that in the next three to four days: CM instructed to Civil Supplies Authraties.
