Give 5 kg grains every month to all Aadhaar holders

Public Distribution System(PDS) in India where the NFSA stipulates 35 kg of rice or wheat to every family has led to exclusion.

In Jharkhand due to non linking of ration card with the aadhaar number people have been denied rations which has lead to some deaths. There is a solution after all.

If 80 crore people are included in the ration card database and if some of the poor people are still excluded it would be wise to deliver 5 kg of rice or wheat every month to anyone with an aadhaar card at the rate at which APL families are provided grains. Such ration could be sold on aadhaar authentication only.

It is not necessary to link such aadhaar numbers with ration card. Anyone not in the ration database should still be included.
