Actually, there is a clear order of the Supreme Court that even those without ration cards should be given free ration. Although the Delhi government was also distributing free ration from schools to such people during the Corona period, but a fortnight ago the Food and Supplies Department made a plan to distribute non-PDS ration from two shops in each ward. For this, about 560 shops have been selected all over Delhi, but in view of the ongoing tussle with the ration shopkeepers, now the department has decided to distribute ration from schools itself.

Now the migrant laborers who do not have ration card, they will be able to get ration from the identified 282 schools of Delhi.
