Granary Of India

Congress leader Rahul Gandhi slammed the government over media reports that India lost Rs 406 crore worth grains due to damage during storage in state-run granaries in the last three years, saying "wasting food is equivalent to stealing from poor."

At least 10 dwellings and two granaries were reduced to ashes today in a devastating fire at Deb in Papum Pare district, police said.

The country stares at an impending drought with widespread monsoon failure causing deep concern. In a surprising contrast, parts of Punjab, the granary of India, may actually end up growing more food grain than normal monsoon years - a startling claim made by Professor BS Dhillon, vice chancellor of Punjab Agriculture University (PAU), Ludhiana.

A new study by American space agency NASA is going to add to the mounting worries of a failing monsoon in India.
