It is shocking that the wheat made available to the Bakery people for bread is fully contaminated.  BJP team led by Dr. Kirit Somaiya, Shri Ajitrao Gogte, MLA, paid surprise visit and obtained samples of all the red imported wheat lying at various Government godowns in Sindhudurg Dist.  BJP team visited Devgad and Vaibhavwadi godowns. 

Whole of the stocks of red imported wheat lying in these godowns found horrible and totally unfit for human consumption and even unfit for animal consumption.

The samples were obtained at Devgad godown from Godown Keeper, Shri K.G. Paradkar and Watchman, Shri S.Y. Mahadik.  Samples were obtained at Vaibhavwadi godown from Godown Keeper Shri Sharavankar and Ralpara (Supply) Inspector, Shri M.M. Shirsat.

The officials informally informed Dr. Somaiya that full quantity of 8404 tons is contaminated.  It is surprising that Government of Maharashtra has declared that 4626 tons of the above is fit for human consumption.  They are made available to bakers and flour mills on as it is where it is situation.

The Civil Supplies Minister, Shri Sunil Tatkare has publicly announced that out of 33,000 tons wheat lying in Government godowns, only 1,000 tons would be thrown in the dumping yard.  18,000 tons is available for human consumption and 14,000 tons for animal consumption.  BJP leader, Dr. Somaiya has challenged Shri Tatkare to show him a single kg. of red imported wheat in any of the State Govt. godowns fit for human consumption.  BJP says whole of the 33,000 tons has reached the horrible state and unfir for any use and should be thrown into the dumping yard.

A special application is filed before the Vacation Judge of the Mumbai High Court by Dr. Kirit Somaiya.  Chamber Summons are being issued by the Adv. Deepak Padwal and Senior Counsel, Adv. Rajiv Kumar is to request lthe High Court to issue directives to Government of Maharashtra to stop the sale of this horrible wheat.
