Kejriwal Govt Not Distributing Food to Vulnerable Families Lacking Ration Cards, Survey Reveals

Despite clear instructions from the courts to provide foodgrains to migrant workers and economically vulnerable families, none of the 62 distribution centres checked were found to be distributing rations.

New Delhi: The Delhi government’s claims to have adopted a scheme to provide rations to poor and marginalised communities – even if they do not possess ration cards – appears to be proving hollow as no distribution of rations is taking place, a food rights organisation has alleged following a ground survey.

The survey, undertaken by Delhi Rozi Roti Adhikar Abhiyan (DRRAA) between January 11 and 13, checked the status of distribution of rations to economically-vulnerable people at 62 out of the 282 schools designated as distribution points. The Abhiyan wither visited the centres physically or contacted them telephonically.

To its surprise and shock, the Abhiyan discovered that “none of the 62 schools checked were distributing rations as they stated that they had no stock of foodgrains”. Disappointed at the lackadaisical approach of the Delhi government in the matter, it said, “The failure to provide ration through designated distribution centres constitutes a violation of the orders of the Supreme Court and the Delhi High Court regarding providing foodgrains to migrant workers and economically vulnerable people who do not possess ration cards during the ongoing pandemic.”
