NEW DELHI: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday made two big announcements during his address to the nation — extension of the current free ration scheme for 80 crore Indians for another five months till the festive season gets over in November, besides announcing the ‘One Nation, One Ration Card’ scheme.
PM lamented the increase in negligence in personal and social behaviour since ‘Unlock-1’ from June 1 when Coronavirus lockdown curbs were eased, and said no one is above law in India be it a village pradhan or the head of the government.
Hinting that it is a long haul and India’s poor and needy will continue to need the handholding of the government, the Prime Minister said the scheme, which will provide 5 kg wheat or rice to every needy family with an addition of 1 kg chana every month, will cost the government Rs 90,000 crore. The total cost of the scheme, including the amount spent so far, will accumulate to Rs 1.5 lakh crore.
The Prime Minister credited the farmers and the honest taxpayers for making the mammoth scheme possible.
