Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann has reaffirmed the Punjab government’s commitment towards enhancing food security within the state. The program ensures continued distribution of wheat to eligible households through the Priority Household (PHH) and Antyodaya Anna Yojana (AAY) schemes.
Food Security Programme by the Bhagwant Mann Government
As per the Punjab government led by Bhagwant Mann, it is imperative to ensure that all eligible families should not be deprived of their ration. The Punjab government has been working towards providing food grains to the families through the public distribution system.
Distribution of Wheat Through NFSA
The process of distribution of wheat to the eligible beneficiary is done under the National Food Security Act (NFSA), 2013. Those who are included in the PHH and AAY are entitled to get food grains through the Public Distribution System.
