| Veeri alleges shortage of rations in Bijbehara area | | | EARLY TIMES REPORT
SRINAGAR, Oct 15: Concerned over the curtailment of monthly ration quota to consumers, Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) general secretary and MLA Bijbehara Abdul Rehman Veeri has expressed serious concern over the shortage of ration at Khiram-Dachnipora-Bijbehara where ration depots are without essential items particularly the rice and has exhorted on the Governor's administration to ensure the supplies of essential commodities particularly rice in the area.
He said with the curtailment, majority of the consumers have been forced to procure food on exorbitant rates from the open market. Instead of providing food security to the consumers, he said, people of the area have been put to lot of inconvenience and sufferings for fetching ration at genuine rates. He said there was an urgent need to take measures for revamping and streamlining the public distribution system in the state to eliminate the scarcity of essential commodities which mostly occurs especially in rural and far-flung areas. He also demanded early winter dumping in such areas and those which remain cut off during the winter period.
The PDP general secretary also welcomed the commissioning of Kashmir University south campus at Anantnag. |
