Thoubal, September 16 2016:
All India Youth Federation (AIYF), Kakching has today stated that some people with a vested interest have deprived the poor people of their allotted share of NFSA rice.
Speaking to media persons at CPI, Kakching Local Council office, AIYF, Kakching secretary Nongmaithem Raghumani said that 10-kg of NFSA rice was distributed twice per head without issuing the NFSA beneficiary cards.
When the agent was asked to hand out the beneficiary cards and then distribute the allotted rice, the agent refused.
Kakching AC has distributed 10-kg of NFSA rice to selected people while the adjoining AC is distributing 5-kg to every beneficiary, he added.
Under the pressure of AIYF, 5-kg of rice for every voter was distributed recently.
It further urged the authority concerned to distribute the full quantities of rice entitled to the beneficiaries which have not been distributed yet.
