Tenders have been called from suppliers to import 70,000 metric tonnes of Nadu rice from India, Lanka Sathosa Chairman Samitha Perera said.
Suppliers have been given a seven-day period, starting today (29), to submit their quotations.
Perera said that the rice should be imported into the country by mid-December.
The Cabinet of Ministers last week granted approval for the import of 70,000 metric tonnes of rice as a short-term solution to address the existing shortage of rice in the market. (Islandnews)
