In a statement issued here on Wednesday, Singh said on the instruction of the Chief Minister as many as 3,000 procurement centres have been opened across the State and so far about 3.30 lakh metric tonnes of grains have been purchased from farmers . Last year during the same period only 93,000 metric tonnes of grains were purchased by the corporation, he informed.
