In last 12 months, 3 million people in Rajasthan haven’t turn up to claim ration from Fair Price Shops for two months in a row

Jaipur:
Rajasthan government is looking for answers. Its food department has begun an exercise to look for those people eligible for procuring food grains from fair price shops (FPSs) but have not turned up for two consecutive months.

In last 12 months, around three million people have been put on ‘abeyance list’, which is a compilation of names of those beneficiaries who have not turned for two months in a row. In Rajasthan, around 48 million people are beneficiaries under the National Food Security Act (NFSA). But, every month fewer people take ration and the department is now out to solve this mystery.

“We want to do away with the abeyance list. There will be only two lists – that of eligible people and ineligible people. Even if a person doesn’t take ration for several months, if eligible, he will continue to be on the list of beneficiaries,” said Siddharth Mahajan, secretary of food and civil supplies department.

He said the department was worried about people who may be eligible but not taking ration for lack of awareness. “We will ask district administrations to run campaigns to make them aware and organize addition of names in the ‘NFSA Yes’ list,” he said.
