Delay in regular delivery due to shortage of wheat
This time the distribution of food grains from government ration shops was delayed due to shortage of wheat. Even now many shops do not have food grains at the shops. The problem of Kotdars and card holders has increased due to the absence of mobile of the District Supply Officer and other officers of the department. However, now a new crop of wheat has arrived and lifting has also started from the godowns. In such a situation, regular distribution of food grains is expected from the quota shops till 14 May.
