The Telangana government has launched a scheme to distribute 6 kilograms of fine rice free of cost per person per month through the Public Distribution System (PDS) to eligible ration cardholders, benefiting over three crore people.
The initiative, aimed at ensuring food security with dignity, is the first of its kind in the country and will replace the previously distributed inferior coarse rice, which was often rejected by beneficiaries.
