(a) whether the offtake of foodgrains is lowest in poorest States in the country;
(b) if so, the details thereof; and
(c) the compulsions expressed by the poorest States for improper implementation of the public distribution system in general and particularly for the people living below the poverty line?
THE MINISTER OF STATE IN THE MINISTRY OF CONSUMER AFFAIRS, FOOD AND PUBLIC DISTRIBUTION ( SHRI ASHOK PRADHAN )
(a)&(b): Statements showing the State-wise allocation, offtake and % offtake of foodgrains (rice and wheat) under the Targeted Public Distribution System (TPDS) during 2001-2002 (upto
February, 2002) are given at Annex-I and II.
(c): The lifting of foodgrains (rice and wheat) by States/UTs under Targeted Public
Distribution System (TPDS) depends on several factors, the most important being the parity
between the Central Issue Prices (CIPs) and the open market prices; availability of foodgrains
in the open market; purchasing power of PDS consumes especially those belonging to the below
poverty line (BPL) category; quality considerations; and the food habits of the people in
different regions of the country.
