Thoubal, March 29 2020:
Secretary of Changamdabi Development Organisation, Md Ayub Kori has claimed that the beneficiaries of National Food Security Act (NFSA) in Andro Assembly Constituency have not been getting their due share of rice since April 2017 .
Addressing a public meeting held today at Yairipok Changamdabi, Md Ayub further alleged that the subsidised rice meant for the beneficiaries of Andro Kendra was 'robbed' by ex-MLA, Th Shyamkumar and his nominee.

Saying that the rice allocated for Andro Assembly Constituency alone is 2,39,000 kgs and about 67,872 kgs will be left, which market value will be over Rs 20 lakh even if all the beneficiaries are given 5 kgs each, he continued that robbing such rice meant for the poor and underprivileged people for a long time is very unfortunate.
He then appealed the State Government and authorities concerned to track down the lost rice and hand it over to the public at the earliest.
During the meeting, the attendees were seated a metre apart to prevent coronavirus from spreading.
On the other hand, member of Changamdabi Mayai Leikai Youth Committee Md Salam also alleged that the people of Andro AC have found out that the lost rice was swindled by Th Shyamkumar and his nominee on investigation and appealed the Chief Minister to look into the matter at the earliest.
