FCI godowns to go online to check stock manipulation

NEW DELHI: The government will soon launch online management and operation of Food Corporation of India (FCI) depots to wipe out manipulation in stock and handling of grains.

Siphoning off huge quantity of grains in the guise of waste is one of the major issues for FCI which has 2,000 such depots across the country. Sources said once the online system is put in place, each bag of grain entering and exiting the depots would be recorded. "The system will reflect each bag right from the weighing bridge and there will be regular updates on the stock. It will record what happens to stock including actual loss at frequent intervals," said a source.

He said at present, there is enough scope for insiders to divert the stock and then showing them under the "permissible loss" head on account of wastage. Thus they escape any chance of being caught even during scrutiny.

"Under the new system, whenever any grain goes out of the depots, these will be recorded and hence there will be no room for taking any stock out of the depots," said an official. He said that a software has already been tested in one depot in Andhra Pradesh. Bringing all the 2,000 depots would take about one-and-a-half years.

While at present CCTV cameras have been installed in about 50 food grain warehouses, sources said real- time online tracking of stocks inside depots will bring about a paradigm shift.

FCI claims to have brought down the loss to 0.05%. This new intervention is likely to reduce the loss further. As on July 1, the total wheat stock in FCO depots was 398 lakh tonnes and rice stock stood at 212 lakh tonnes.

The Nadrendra Modi government has also prioritized the efficient working of FCI and better management of food grain stocks.
