India's principal diplomatic allies Singapore, Indonesia, and the Philippines have requested the Centre to restore rice exports to their countries after India decided to halt non-basmati imports to monitor pricing.
Report informs via foreign media that around 110,000 tonnes of rice have been requested by Singapore from India. To counter the effects of the El Nino weather trend, Indonesia announced intentions to import 1 million tonnes (mt) of rice from India in June. India is another source of rice for the Philippines.
According to reports, the UN World Food Programme recently requested 200,000 tonnes of Indian rice for its humanitarian operations.
