Imphal, May 31 2014 :
The National Food Security Act (NFSA) is likely to make its debut in July according to what transpired at a meeting held today with the CAF&PD Commissioner in the chair.
Govt officials are apprehensive that the Central Govt may blame Chief Minister O Ibobi for not implementing NFSA in the State till date.
As such, the meeting deliberated on implementing the NFSA as soon as possible, informed an official source.
The meeting after minute deliberation directed DSOs, Deputy Directors and Additional Deputy Commissioners to furnish names of priority and AAY beneficiaries as well as names of their family members as soon as possible so that the Chief Minister can finalise with the Central authority the State's quota.
