Solution

The correct option is C 2 only
Explanation:

Statement 1 is incorrect. It has recommended reducing the coverage under NFSA from present 67% to 40%

Statement 2 is correct. The Food Corporation of India (FCI) must transfer procurement operations to states which have made a considerable expenditure in infrastructure. This will reduce the operating cost of FCI.

Statement 3 is incorrect. It recommended encouraging NWRS (Negotiable Warehouse Receipt System). Under NWRS, the Warehousing Development and Regulatory Authority (WDRA) issues Negotiable Warehouse Receipts (NWR). This helps farmers to store their produce in scientific storage godowns nearby their farms and to seek loans from banks against their NWR.
