This tribal village gets its first ration shop after Independence by N Ravikumar |
More than six decades after Independence, the Tamil Nadu government has woken up to the demands of tribals living in Vettukkadu village, surrounded by the Mullaiperiyar river and thick jungles of the Western Ghats, by opening a part-time ration shop in their area. This is the first government project in the village, which is largely inaccessible due to its location between thick forests and the Mullaiperiyar river. No government scheme, including medical, educational and pension projects, have reached this village, populated only by 70 tribal families. The major demand of the tribals was a PDS shop in their locality, since it was difficult for them to reach the main land to get essential food items. The villagers had to travel several kilometres over one of the hills of the Western Ghats and cross the Mullaiperiyar river, when the water flow is low. During rainy season, they cannot get essential food items since all routes connecting the village to the mainland are usually cut off due to floods. They have no choice but to starve during rainy season since they cannot buy and store large quantities of food with their paltry income. This rainy season promises to be different for the tribals, following the inauguration of a part-time PDS shop today, more than a month before rainy season begins in Tamil Nadu. Civil Supplies Department officials would bring essential commodities to this shop and store it for distribution, the administration said. The part-time ration shop would be opened twice a week and essential commodities would be supplied at the rates prescribed by the government, they said. DC P Muthuveeran, who inaugurated the shop, said card holders at this village numbered just 70, which was insufficient to open even a part-time shop, he pointed out, adding that the district administration had obtained special permission from the government to open the shop. |
