Probe on into Plastic Rice, Eggs, Sugar
With rumours about plastic rice, plastic eggs and plastic sugar raising suspicions about the quality of food being consumed, the Karnataka government has ordered an inquiry to know the facts on the ground.
Replying to the issue raised by CT Ravi (BJP) in the legislative assembly on Friday, health minister KR Ramesh Kumar said: "Food experts and scientists have ruled out plastic rice or eggs.Since reports keep surfacing in the media, we have ordered an inquiry. We will ascertain if these are a fallout of gossip or if there is any truth."
Ravi said plastic food items were adding to the fear factor among the public. Joining the discussion, food and civil supplies minister UT Khader spiked reports about plastic rice being supplied under the Anna Bhagya programme.
