The Indian government will continue providing free food grains to about 813.5 million beneficiaries between January and December 2023 under the National Food Security Act (NFSA). On January 25, 2022, the government announced to offload 3 million metric tons (MMT) of wheat onto the domestic market between January and March 2023, to help control rising wheat prices.
