Congress president Sonia Gandhi on Saturday asked the States ruled by the party to implement in "letter and spirit" the food security scheme, which it sees as a "game-changer" in the 2014 Lok Sabha elections.

Ms. Gandhi held deliberations with Congress Chief Ministers on how to implement the food scheme seeking to provide cheap foodgrains to 82 crore people, for which an ordinance was promulgated last week.

Party sources said the Chief Ministers were told at the meeting to rollout the scheme in "letter and spirit".

Delhi, where Assembly polls are due by year-end, will be the first State to roll out the scheme on August 20, the birth anniversary of former Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi.

Besides Congress Chief Ministers, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, party vice-president Rahul Gandhi, Food Minister K.V. Thomas, AICC general secretaries were present during the deliberations.

The aim of the meeting was to ensure that the scheme is implemented in the best possible manner with Congress-ruled States becoming role models in implementation of the food security measure.
