Chhattisgarh upstaged the Centre yesterday by enacting the Chhattisgarh Food Security Act (CFSA), an improved version of the "national food security bill" that has been languishing in Parliament for more than a year. Under the CFSA, about 90% of the population of Chhattisgarh will have PDS entitlements, mostly under the Priority and Antyodaya categories, entitled to 35 kgs of foodgrains per month at a token price aside from 2 kg of pulses or chana at Rs 5/kg and free iodized salt. The Act also guarantees free nutritious meals or take-home rations in anganwadis, schools and other institutions for children below the age of six years, school children, pregnant and lactating women, destitute persons and other vulnerable groups.

A summary of the Act is provided, along with the full text of the Act and an explanatory presentation.
