Lucknow: Free ration distribution will start in Uttar Pradesh from November 3, not 5, but at government shops. In view of Diwali, the Yogi government has taken this decision, so that the poor do not face the problem of logistics during the festival. Let us tell you, earlier the distribution of ration was to be done in December, which was changed to November 5. But, Diwali is falling on November 4, so the Yogi government has decided to distribute ration a day before the festival.
Ration will be given from November 3
Let us tell you, this time sugar will also be given along with the ration received by the government. For this, Commissioner Food and Logistics Department Saurabh Babu has issued instructions to all the District Magistrates. Additional Food Commissioner Anil Kumar Dubey said that under the Pradhan Mantri Garib Kalyan Anna Yojana, ration is distributed from 5th to 15th of every month.
Sugar will be available at Rs 18 per kg
This time, keeping the festival in mind, ration will be distributed from November 3. Every eligible household and Antyodaya card holders in Uttar Pradesh will be given five kilograms of wheat per unit free of cost during the period from November 3 to 15. This time sugar will also be distributed to Antyodaya card holders at the rate of Rs 18 per kg. Let us tell you that the price of sugar in the market is Rs 40 per kg. On the festival, you will be able to buy sugar at Rs 22 cheaper than the market rate from government shops.
No portability facility
Sugar was earlier to be distributed to Antyodaya card holders in December, but keeping in mind Diwali and Chhath Puja, the Yogi government has fixed the date of distribution of sugar on November 3. State portability facility will not be available in sugar distribution. That is, the state to which the Antyodaya card holder belongs, will be able to take sugar at a reasonable rate from the government ration shop in the same state.
