Food Management and Trading Company Ltd still undecided on a legal case to file against Mugu rice supplier

The accused admitted to supplying subsidised rice meant for Karnali to Bhaktapur.

Last month, a truck loaded with rice was intercepted by police in Surkhet. The truck was carrying subsidised rice meant for Karnali Province but it was headed to Bhaktapur in Bagmati Province. An internal investigation launched by the Food Management and Trading Company Ltd found a “serious mistake” on the part of the supplier, Durga Bhagwati Enterprises and Sharma Transportation Service.
