Govt drops pvt participation in grain buying for PM-AASHAA

The Centre has discontinued a subscheme that allowed private sector participation in the government's grain procurement as per the rejigging of the flagship scheme of PM-AASHA to ensure minimum support price to farmers approved by the Union Cabinet.

Union Agriculture Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan said on Wednesday that PPSS (Private Procurement and Stockist Scheme), which was earlier part of the bouquet of programmes offered under PMAASHA, has been scrapped as there was not much participation from private companies. Chouhan was speaking to reporters on the sidelines of a press conference organised as part of 100 days of Prime Minister Narendra Modi's third term in office.
