Delhi ration scheme rejected, AAP govt scoffs at reasons

The row over the Delhi government’s plan for doorstep delivery of ration escalated on Wednesday with the Aam Aadmi Party government saying the Centre has rejected Delhi’s ambitious scheme by posing senseless questions like how the ration will be delivered to beneficiaries living in multi-storey buildings in narrow bylanes. Delhi received a letter from the ministry of consumer affairs, food and public distribution on June 22 stating that the ration scheme can’t be approved because it does not meet the statutory and functional requirements of National Food Security Act.
