&lt;em&gt;No rice for villages till MLA, commune commissioner certify them to be clean, said original order by the Puducherry L-G.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
New Delhi: &lt;/em&gt;Puducherry lieutenant-governor Kiran Bedi&amp;rsquo;s snap decision to stop the distribution of free rice to the poor in villages that have not become open defecation-free and continue to have garbage and plastic strewn around may have been an attempt to incentivise hygienic practices. But it did not go down well with food rights activists who termed the move &amp;ldquo;wrong, illegal and inhumane&amp;rdquo;, saying it would only punish and deprive the marginalised sections further.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
By Saturday night, the former police officer-turned-BJP politician was forced to change course and withdraw her order &amp;ndash; widely attacked as arbitrary and anti-poor.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In a statement, Bedi said the intention of her direction was &amp;ldquo;not to deny any poor persons their entitlement&amp;rdquo;. She claimed that she had &amp;ldquo;already sanctioned and directed to provide quality food grains to needy families&amp;rdquo; and that the department was in the process of procurement and distribution.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While not being able to explain the rationale behind further depriving the marginalised, she said: &amp;ldquo;The communication under comment is an expression of my serious intent and concern about addressing the root causes of health hazards in rural areas and to compel performance of community and administrative leadership.&amp;rdquo;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She went on to add that to avoid misreading of this intention and in view of the forthcoming commitment made by the Union Territory government that villages in Puducherry will achieve open defecation free (ODF) status by June end, she was &amp;ldquo;happy to give them some more time&amp;rdquo;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;ldquo;Therefore,&amp;rdquo; she said &amp;ldquo;I am withholding my earlier communications.&amp;rdquo;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt;Original order affected &amp;lsquo;half the population&amp;rsquo; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Bedi announced her decision to link the supply of free rice to a village&amp;rsquo;s ODF status despite knowing her order might affect half the population in the rural areas of Puducherry. She tweeted that she was linking free rice distribution in villages to certification from the respective legislators and Commune Commissioners who would have to convince the the Civil Suppliers Commissioner that the village is clean.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;em&gt;No rice for villages till MLA, commune commissioner certify them to be clean, said original order by the Puducherry L-G.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
New Delhi: &lt;/em&gt;Puducherry lieutenant-governor Kiran Bedi&amp;rsquo;s snap decision to stop the distribution of free rice to the poor in villages that have not become open defecation-free and continue to have garbage and plastic strewn around may have been an attempt to incentivise hygienic practices. But it did not go down well with food rights activists who termed the move &amp;ldquo;wrong, illegal and inhumane&amp;rdquo;, saying it would only punish and deprive the marginalised sections further.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
By Saturday night, the former police officer-turned-BJP politician was forced to change course and withdraw her order &amp;ndash; widely attacked as arbitrary and anti-poor.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In a statement, Bedi said the intention of her direction was &amp;ldquo;not to deny any poor persons their entitlement&amp;rdquo;. She claimed that she had &amp;ldquo;already sanctioned and directed to provide quality food grains to needy families&amp;rdquo; and that the department was in the process of procurement and distribution.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While not being able to explain the rationale behind further depriving the marginalised, she said: &amp;ldquo;The communication under comment is an expression of my serious intent and concern about addressing the root causes of health hazards in rural areas and to compel performance of community and administrative leadership.&amp;rdquo;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She went on to add that to avoid misreading of this intention and in view of the forthcoming commitment made by the Union Territory government that villages in Puducherry will achieve open defecation free (ODF) status by June end, she was &amp;ldquo;happy to give them some more time&amp;rdquo;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;ldquo;Therefore,&amp;rdquo; she said &amp;ldquo;I am withholding my earlier communications.&amp;rdquo;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt;Original order affected &amp;lsquo;half the population&amp;rsquo; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Bedi announced her decision to link the supply of free rice to a village&amp;rsquo;s ODF status despite knowing her order might affect half the population in the rural areas of Puducherry. She tweeted that she was linking free rice distribution in villages to certification from the respective legislators and Commune Commissioners who would have to convince the the Civil Suppliers Commissioner that the village is clean.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;em&gt;No rice for villages till MLA, commune commissioner certify them to be clean, said original order by the Puducherry L-G.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
New Delhi: &lt;/em&gt;Puducherry lieutenant-governor Kiran Bedi&amp;rsquo;s snap decision to stop the distribution of free rice to the poor in villages that have not become open defecation-free and continue to have garbage and plastic strewn around may have been an attempt to incentivise hygienic practices. But it did not go down well with food rights activists who termed the move &amp;ldquo;wrong, illegal and inhumane&amp;rdquo;, saying it would only punish and deprive the marginalised sections further.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
By Saturday night, the former police officer-turned-BJP politician was forced to change course and withdraw her order &amp;ndash; widely attacked as arbitrary and anti-poor.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In a statement, Bedi said the intention of her direction was &amp;ldquo;not to deny any poor persons their entitlement&amp;rdquo;. She claimed that she had &amp;ldquo;already sanctioned and directed to provide quality food grains to needy families&amp;rdquo; and that the department was in the process of procurement and distribution.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While not being able to explain the rationale behind further depriving the marginalised, she said: &amp;ldquo;The communication under comment is an expression of my serious intent and concern about addressing the root causes of health hazards in rural areas and to compel performance of community and administrative leadership.&amp;rdquo;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She went on to add that to avoid misreading of this intention and in view of the forthcoming commitment made by the Union Territory government that villages in Puducherry will achieve open defecation free (ODF) status by June end, she was &amp;ldquo;happy to give them some more time&amp;rdquo;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;ldquo;Therefore,&amp;rdquo; she said &amp;ldquo;I am withholding my earlier communications.&amp;rdquo;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt;Original order affected &amp;lsquo;half the population&amp;rsquo; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Bedi announced her decision to link the supply of free rice to a village&amp;rsquo;s ODF status despite knowing her order might affect half the population in the rural areas of Puducherry. She tweeted that she was linking free rice distribution in villages to certification from the respective legislators and Commune Commissioners who would have to convince the the Civil Suppliers Commissioner that the village is clean.&lt;br /&gt;

<em>No rice for villages till MLA, commune commissioner certify them to be clean, said original order by the Puducherry L-G.<br />
<br />
New Delhi: </em>Puducherry lieutenant-governor Kiran Bedi&rsquo;s snap decision to stop the distribution of free rice to the poor in villages that have not become open defecation-free and continue to have garbage and plastic strewn around may have been an attempt to incentivise hygienic practices. But it did not go down well with food rights activists who termed the move &ldquo;wrong, illegal and inhumane&rdquo;, saying it would only punish and deprive the marginalised sections further.<br />
<br />
By Saturday night, the former police officer-turned-BJP politician was forced to change course and withdraw her order &ndash; widely attacked as arbitrary and anti-poor.<br />
<br />
In a statement, Bedi said the intention of her direction was &ldquo;not to deny any poor persons their entitlement&rdquo;. She claimed that she had &ldquo;already sanctioned and directed to provide quality food grains to needy families&rdquo; and that the department was in the process of procurement and distribution.<br />
<br />
While not being able to explain the rationale behind further depriving the marginalised, she said: &ldquo;The communication under comment is an expression of my serious intent and concern about addressing the root causes of health hazards in rural areas and to compel performance of community and administrative leadership.&rdquo;<br />
<br />
She went on to add that to avoid misreading of this intention and in view of the forthcoming commitment made by the Union Territory government that villages in Puducherry will achieve open defecation free (ODF) status by June end, she was &ldquo;happy to give them some more time&rdquo;.<br />
<br />
&ldquo;Therefore,&rdquo; she said &ldquo;I am withholding my earlier communications.&rdquo;<br />
<br />
<em>Original order affected &lsquo;half the population&rsquo; <br />
</em><br />
Bedi announced her decision to link the supply of free rice to a village&rsquo;s ODF status despite knowing her order might affect half the population in the rural areas of Puducherry. She tweeted that she was linking free rice distribution in villages to certification from the respective legislators and Commune Commissioners who would have to convince the the Civil Suppliers Commissioner that the village is clean.<br />

<em>No rice for villages till MLA, commune commissioner certify them to be clean, said original order by the Puducherry L-G.<br />
<br />
New Delhi: </em>Puducherry lieutenant-governor Kiran Bedi&rsquo;s snap decision to stop the distribution of free rice to the poor in villages that have not become open defecation-free and continue to have garbage and plastic strewn around may have been an attempt to incentivise hygienic practices. But it did not go down well with food rights activists who termed the move &ldquo;wrong, illegal and inhumane&rdquo;, saying it would only punish and deprive the marginalised sections further.<br />
<br />
By Saturday night, the former police officer-turned-BJP politician was forced to change course and withdraw her order &ndash; widely attacked as arbitrary and anti-poor.<br />
<br />
In a statement, Bedi said the intention of her direction was &ldquo;not to deny any poor persons their entitlement&rdquo;. She claimed that she had &ldquo;already sanctioned and directed to provide quality food grains to needy families&rdquo; and that the department was in the process of procurement and distribution.<br />
<br />
While not being able to explain the rationale behind further depriving the marginalised, she said: &ldquo;The communication under comment is an expression of my serious intent and concern about addressing the root causes of health hazards in rural areas and to compel performance of community and administrative leadership.&rdquo;<br />
<br />
She went on to add that to avoid misreading of this intention and in view of the forthcoming commitment made by the Union Territory government that villages in Puducherry will achieve open defecation free (ODF) status by June end, she was &ldquo;happy to give them some more time&rdquo;.<br />
<br />
&ldquo;Therefore,&rdquo; she said &ldquo;I am withholding my earlier communications.&rdquo;<br />
<br />
<em>Original order affected &lsquo;half the population&rsquo; <br />
</em><br />
Bedi announced her decision to link the supply of free rice to a village&rsquo;s ODF status despite knowing her order might affect half the population in the rural areas of Puducherry. She tweeted that she was linking free rice distribution in villages to certification from the respective legislators and Commune Commissioners who would have to convince the the Civil Suppliers Commissioner that the village is clean.<br />

Kiran Bedi Links Distribution of Free Rice to Sanitation, Then Backs Off -Gaurav Vivek Bhatnagar

-TheWire.in No rice for villages till MLA, commune commissioner certify them to be clean, said original order by the Puducherry L-G. New Delhi: Puducherry lieutenant-governor Kiran Bedi’s snap decision to stop the distribution of free rice to the poor in villages that have not become open defecation-free and continue to have garbage and plastic strewn around may have been an attempt to incentivise hygienic practices. But it did not go down well with food rights activists who termed the move “wrong, illegal and inhumane”, saying it would only punish and deprive the marginalised sections further. By Saturday night, the former police officer-turned-BJP politician was forced to change course and withdraw her order – widely attacked as arbitrary and anti-poor. In a statement, Bedi said the intention of her direction was “not to deny any poor persons their entitlement”. She claimed that she had “already sanctioned and directed to provide quality food grains to needy families” and that the department was in the process of procurement and distribution. While not being able to explain the rationale behind further depriving the marginalised, she said: “The communication under comment is an expression of my serious intent and concern about addressing the root causes of health hazards in rural areas and to compel performance of community and administrative leadership.” She went on to add that to avoid misreading of this intention and in view of the forthcoming commitment made by the Union Territory government that villages in Puducherry will achieve open defecation free (ODF) status by June end, she was “happy to give them some more time”. “Therefore,” she said “I am withholding my earlier communications.” Original order affected ‘half the population’ Bedi announced her decision to link the supply of free rice to a village’s ODF status despite knowing her order might affect half the population in the rural areas of Puducherry. She tweeted that she was linking free rice distribution in villages to certification from the respective legislators and Commune Commissioners who would have to convince the the Civil Suppliers Commissioner that the village is clean.
