High Court Quashes Notice Regarding Export of Broken Rice Issued by the Directorate General of Foreign Trade

The High Court has cancelled a trade notice issued by the Directorate General of Foreign Trade on June 20. That notice stated that only those who had exported rice to Senegal, Gambia and Indonesia in three consecutive financial years would be allowed to allocate export quota of broken rice.

A bench of Justices Vibhu Bakhru and Amit Mahajan said the central government had failed to provide any rational basis for limiting the export quota for rice exporters who had exported during the three financial years preceding the ban and the purpose of this was to efficiency and quality had to be ensured.

In this case the disputed trade notice is cancelled. If the government wishes, it can re-evaluate the criteria for allocating quota for export of broken rice. The bench has given this order while hearing the petition of several traders exporting rice. They were affected by the ban and called it a violation of Article 14 and Article 19(1)(g) of the Constitution.
