The Food Ministry has sent a letter to the Commerce Ministry for allowing six more private companies to import 20,000 tonnes of rice to keep the rice market stable.
 
The letter, signed by Additional Secretary Mojibor Rahman, has been sent to the senior secretary to the Commerce Ministry recently seeking permission to import 13,000 tonnes of boiled rice and 7,000 tonnes of not-boiled rice.
 
The ministry asked to allow these persons or agencies to import specified quantity (with maximum of 5 percent coarse grains) of boiled and Atap rice.
 
According to the conditions of rice import, the permitted importers have to market all the rice in Bangladesh by December 31. The quantity of imported rice, storage and marketing information should be informed to the District Food Controller concerned.
