The South India Times Spl correspondent Hyderabad: The central government’s decision to impose a 20% duty on the export of non-basmati raw rice and to ban the export of Nuka is not the right decision. Compared to every other time in Telangana, this time two inches of paddy have been planted. In the past, the central government had said that after planting rice, other crops should be planted. He said that the stocks of rice are decreasing today. Imposing a 20% duty on export is not the right decision.
This effect is likely to have a severe impact on the farmers of the southern states, the rice mills association, and the economy of the states. If a 20 percent tax is imposed on Sona Mussoorie in Telangana, even if the farmer Thudi Devender Reddy has 3000 kitams, the farmer will suffer a loss of about 600 rupees. Telangana farmers suffer heavy losses due to raw rice export tax There is no tax on basmati rice export but a tax on raw rice 10 percent price drop in one day with export tax.
Such a decision is not reasonable at the time of harvest. Like basmati rice, Telangana Sona Mussoorie should be registered by the Telangana government for 4 arrivals. Like Punjab, Haryana, Himachal Pradesh, Jammu, and Kashmir GI registration for basmati rice, Telangana Sona Mus- soorie should create a brand. Telangana Sona Mussoorie is loved all over the world..
Stay in the last Kharif. 30 lakh tons of rice are ready in Telangana in the name of savings. India’s rice crop has decreased by only 5 percent. No one will be affected by the reduced crop, but the central government’s decision is without proper reason. The central government’s decision is unfair to southern states. Farmers are worried about the central government’s decision at the time when the crop will come in handy and the price will be remunerative. Telangana Sona Mussoorie should be given a subsidy at par with basmati rice. Restrictions should be lifted. Tax on export should be abolished.
