Jagan ration door delivery to face court cases

9

The ration dealers association of Andhra Pradesh is raising its voice against the YCP Government’s door delivery scheme. They say that they are not against the door delivery directly but their only plea is for ensuring reasonable income for them in the face of reduced PDS income.

The dealers deplore that after the introduction of door delivery vehicles by Jagan Reddy, the common public have stopped coming to their shops. As a result, they are not getting both PDS and non-PDS incomes. The Jagan regime has introduced the door delivery scheme without finding alternative measures for the survival of the ration dealers.

The national food security act has provisions for ensuring professional security to the ration dealers. As per this law, the dealers can sell non-PDS items also in order to provide for their family members. It is on this right that the ration dealers are now approaching the court against the Jagan Reddy regime’s door delivery scheme. There is no alternative for the YCP regime but to create alternative income opportunities for the dealers all over the State.

Interestingly, several other States are also promising door delivery schemes on the lines of the AP model. As a result, the ration dealers are preparing to take up this issue at the national level.

  1. Irrespective of how this scheme is being implemented, the first question I think is why?
    There was no need for door delivery at first point.
    Yes , it makes sense to give it for disabled people who can’t use fingerprint by going to ration centes , but for others it is not so useful, and the costs of Vehicles and their maintenance and the salary for the people driving that everything is being taken back from people income only.
    It’s better they use these vehicles for some other purposes and make the old system implemented once again.
    Just a suggestion!!!

    • Any new system implemented will take time to embed. Maybe its not fully embedded yet and hence people are finding it difficult to understand. Give it time and will see the benefits outweight the govt spending on this scheme. Its does provide jobs for unemployed youth right. Sure there will be minority that won’t be impressed with the scheme and its workings.

      • any system should be efficient and cost effective. first the new system is not a door delivery as they are calling house holds to come to collect ration 30 to 50m away from there home and only specific time in one day of month is given. so the current is inefficient and costly

  2. డోర్ డెలివరీ అనేది అనవసరపు ఖర్చు. బండి , పెట్రోల్ ,25000 జీతం. పైగా రేషన్ ఇవ్వడానికి వచ్చినప్పుడు ఇంట్లో వాళ్ళు లేకుంటే రేషన్ పోద్ది. అదే షాప్ లో అయితే. 15 రోజుల్లో ఎప్పుడు కుదిరితే అప్పుడు తెచ్చుకోవచ్చు.
