Law To Save Wastage Of Grain?

      As per estimates India has one fourth of world’s poor & hungry population and 218 million people’s of the country are victim of malnutrition; rotten of grain in government warehouses’ are quite common practice on yearly basis and it is around thirty eight percent grain that is rot in the government go downs every year, insult to injury is that India import every year grain from other country. The way grain stored in the government go downs if it properly store then not only crises relating to grain will over but then there will be no need to import grain from other country instead it can be export, but Union Food and Consumer Affairs Minister of country Professor K V Thomas has some other plans to get rid on to the problem of wastage of grain in the country and announced his ministry is considering to aware peoples to make one dish in the public gatherings or marriage ceremonies, as our motto is to save wastage of grain and on these ceremonies wastage of grain is reported almost around twenty percent, which is matter of concern for his ministry and challenge to get rid on to this problem.
       It is ridiculous that country is producing in such a large amount of grain that it can be use by whole country for the period of more then year easily, but negligence in the storing facilities at government ware houses’, resulting wastage of one third of grains production as few spells of rain are enough to rot the stored grain, score of time question raises in the country that if government has problem of storing grain in right way then why not it distributed among needy peoples of the country as score of countrymen have not quality food access of two times full tummy, its answer was based on the trading terms that it will result in slump phase in grain trade, but along with it there is another story that is India import grain from other countries every year, instead of taking care of its system Food and Consumer Affairs Minister is thinking to make aware people of the country and if it won’t work then they can make law also of one dish in marriage ceremonies and at social gatherings, it is on the pattern of Pakistan where it is law. Around twenty percent grain wastages’ are cause of concern to his ministry, so they are thinking to make set up in the country that will help to get rid on to the problem. This was topic of discussion in one of his ministry recently held meeting which was held last week, and when asked by present media’s representatives that if his ministry has any intention to make it law of one dish, he respond that right now they are going to make aware peoples but if needed then they can make it law also.
     It’s really a good and positive move to save grain from wastages by public in there functions by tightening the law, but it is directly interference in the freedom of public as we are citizen of democratic country, it is better and good instead of making harsh law, government should take care of its storing facilities of warehouses’ which is responsible for rot of grain thirty eight percent every year, even it is accepted by former Food and Agriculture Minister Mr. Shard Pawar that tens of tons of grain rot in the government warehouses’, but if ministry is considering to make law of one dish in marriages and social gatherings and let grain rot in there go downs is a ridiculous move.
