Grains sold at fair price shops unfit for eating: Consumers

Palampur: In the absence of any checks, ‘substandard’ foodgrain, especially pulses, are being sold at fair price shops in Kangra district. The pulses have high moisture content and are not fit for human consumption. The state government supplies subsidised foodgrain to consumers through over 4,500 outlets, including fair price shops.

Sources say that the commodities being supplied at the fair price shops are directly purchased by the HP State Civil Supply Corporation (HPSCSC), a government undertaking, from private and government agencies. These items are then cleaned and packed bearing HPSCSC stickers. However, the quality of foodgrain is far from satisfactory.

Beneficiaries rue that despite the food security scheme ensuring access to quality food at affordable prices, they are getting ‘substandard’ commodities.
