Udupi has nearly 1 lakh beneficiaries for ’Anna Bhagya’scheme
UDUPI: Urban development and district in-charge minister Vinay Kumar Sorake kick-started the state government’s much-vaunted ’Anna Bhagya’ rice-at-Re 1/kg scheme at a formal programme at Sri VeerabhadraSabhaBhavan, Kaup, here on Wednesday.
Inaugurating the programme, Vinay Kumar said ’Anna Bhagya’ is a scheme initiated by the government to ensure that no poor people starve due to their incapability to buy rice. He said that the process of providing foodgrains to ration card holders will be simplified and action initiated in the coming days to enable the present APL card holders who fulfil norms to get BPL cards.
The Food Security Bill ordinance ratified by President Pranab Mukherjee recently is supportive of the state’s ’Anna Bhagya’ scheme. The bill has reduced the burden on the state exchequer to Rs 3,500 crore from the initial estimate of Rs 7,500 crore, he said.
Deputy commissioner M T Reju said that Udupi has nearly 1 lakh beneficiaries. Appropriate measures have been taken by the district administration in coordinating with the department of food and civil supplies to ensure that rice is distributed at Re 1 and supplied to ration shops on time. A vigilance committee will check any malpractices, he said.
Baby Kotian, a resident of Kaup and beneficiary, told TOI on the sidelines of the inauguration of the scheme that there are four persons at her house and the scheme is helpful as she gets 30 kg of rice every month. Baby earns income by rolling beedis. Another beneficiary, Rajeevi L Suvarna, said just as the government has initiated the rice scheme, it should also provide employment opportunities for the youth for she is unemployed despite having completed her degree from St Mary’s College, Shirva, in 1991.
