Daijiworld Media Network – Mangaluru/Udupi (MS)

Mangaluru/Udupi, May 22: The deputy commissioners (DC) of Dakshina Kannada and Udupi districts have informed that the ration stores or PDS (Public Distribution System) shop owners should open their shops at 7 am and distribute the ration to the public during lock down period.

In a publication, the DCs said, “If there is crowding, the shop owner should issue slip or tokens. Even after 10 am, people who are standing in queue should not be sent back without distributing the ration meant for them. Social distancing needs to be maintained. The ration store owner should make arrangement of hand sanitizer as well as drinking water. As Aadhar card and OTP is provided, the store owners should not get confused and pressurize the ration card holders for bio metric authentication.

Raw and boiled rice should be distributed in equal quantities. Police personnel are already deployed to prevent crowding and also maintain law and order near the ration stores. Ration card holders of outstation districts may obtain the same from the nearby stores where the stock is available,” they said.

    I think stores are open till 10.00 am now but on 15/5/2021 i went to kuloor store at 9.15am and no customer was there in store. When i asked for the ration (APL) the store fellow told that after 9.00 Am it is closed even though it was open. I requested him a lot but he refused and behaved as if he is giving from his pocket. He don't know how we ladies comes to store to collect Rations at 9.00 am at this lockdown period. In this lock down time what he has done is not correct. If Ration items are not collected from the people than the store people can sell in double price so they are behaving rude with the customers. Middle class people has no value nowadays. Only during election time MP's are ready to catch leg also.

    Seeing the queue at the government-run ration shops it seems this corona has affected everyone financially. Usually, few people would have gone to the ration shop for purchasing the goods. But today the situation is different. Corona badly effected everyone
