Basmati tag

Basmati tag January 29, 2021 Pakistan and the Rice Exporters Association of Pakistan, as well as other business entities involved, have made an important step forward by having basmati rice grown in Pakistan given a geographical indication tag stating that it originates in Pakistan. This ensures that rice imported from Pakistan is recognized as Pakistani by the EU and fetches higher prices as the strain of rice known as basmati which is considered superior to other kinds of rice. Till now, India has been attempting to block Pakistan from attaining this tag, on the grounds that basmati rice had originated in India and as such only India had the right to the geographical indication tag, which it has already obtained some years ago. Pakistan however had fought back, saying that rice is also grown all over Pakistan, and principally its provinces of Punjab and Sindh.
