Three-Month Ration to Be Given at Once Under PDS
★ In view of the ongoing war between India and Pakistan, the government has decided to provide three months' worth of ration in advance under the Public Distribution System (PDS), instead of the usual monthly distribution. This step is being taken to ensure that citizens do not face food shortages if the situation worsens in the future.
★ iGrain India has also spoken to several leading figures in the wheat industry, who advise that in the current scenario, no one should engage in hurried or panic-driven buying or selling, or act under anyone's influence. These conditions caused by the war are temporary.
★ In the national interest, citizens are strongly urged not to engage in any kind of hoarding or stockpiling.
