The bags filled with soil were found during inspection of Kartar Warehouse in Phanda area by Corporation Managing Director, Arun Pandey yesterday.
Pandey has instructed the official concerned to file an FIR against the owner, a Public Relation Department official said today.
Though the number of bags containing soil was less as compared to the total stock, the government has taken a serious view of the matter as it amounts to irregularity, he said.
The Corporation MD said instructions were issued by the Chief Minister and Food and Civil Supplies minister to supply good quality wheat via the Public Distribution System (PDS).
The quality is checked at many levels in the PDS. Wheat is supplied to fair price shops after checking each and every bag taken from the warehouse, Pandey said, adding that the system will be improved further at warehouse level.
