India has allowed export of 450,000 tons of non-basmati rice to Bangladesh, waiving a ban on the classified commodity export.
Indian Director General of foreign trade said in a statement on Tuesday. The country currently has prohibited rice exports of any variety priced below US$500 per ton. The official said, state-run companies, namely the State Trading Corporation, MMTC Ltd, PEC Ltd and National Agricultural Cooperative Marketing Federation of India Ltd will export 100,000 tons each to its neighboring Bangladesh, where price of rice is one roller-coastar ride.
It was mentioned that the West Bengal Essential Commodities Supply Corporation Ltd will export 50,000 tons taking the total 5,00,000 tons that was committed by Indian External Affairs Minister Pranab Mukherjee during his last visit to Dhaka immediately after the Super Cyclone Sidr devastated its southwestern coast on November 15, 2007. |
