Imphal, May 29 2016:
For Thangmeiband AC, the task of distributing identity cards to priority households listed under the National Food Security Act (NFSA) has been handed over to local clubs.
Speaking to media persons at Thangmeiband Tarung village this afternoon, Thangmeiband Kendra Development Organisation (TAKDO) general secretary K Dalinkumar said that NFSA cards would be distributed through 19 local clubs to beneficiaries residing within 34 polling stations of the Assembly segment.
He further assured that all possible measures would be taken up in consultation with MLA Kh Joykishan so that all the eligible families left out so far are also brought within the fold of NFSA.
He said that they took up the initiative of distributing NFSA cards through local clubs after taking due note of the controversies that erupted over alleged interference by MLAs in the distribution of beneficiary cards.
Dalinkumar appealed to all the households to give their particulars to TAKDO if they have not got their cards or if they are yet to apply for NFSA benefits.
