While the BPL card holders receive their quota in full measure of all commodities, the APL card holders receive their quota in lesser measure without sugar.
Many question the wisdom of our government in denying sugar to the APL card holders.
In Goa where there is so much in abundance, to deny some the right to essential commodities of daily consumption is a breach of human rights. It’s festival time, without sugar, maida, pulses and oil; low grade rice and wheat at the Public Distribution (ration) Shops is adding to the misery of festive season. Will the Department of Civil Supplies and Consumer Affairs look into the equal distribution of ration quota to all card holders irrespective of their status?
