Rice shortage all over the country There is a shortage of rice in many parts of the country. There is a shortage of rice for sale in some shops. Traders say that although they have ordered rice, the suppliers have not yet placed such orders. Consumers have also created this shortage by stockpiling rice stocks. Meanwhile, the CWE sales network, as well as the supermarkets, has set a maximum limit of one rice per customer, restricting the issuance of rice. There is a long queue in front of Sathosa outlets to get rice due to the sale of rice under government controlled prices. Resources From lankacnews
