R.S PURA, Feb 27: District Development Council (DDC) member Suchetgarh, Taranjit Singh Tony criticized the elected representatives of R.S Pura for depriving the people with curtailment of 300 quintals of PDS ration per month.
Tony claimed, about 300 quintals of PDS ration was curtailed every month against allotted quota of 6000 quintals for Miran Sahib, R.S Pura, Suchetgarh and Chakroi.
“It’s very unfortunate that the public representatives of these areas were unaware of this issue due to which the general public faced hardships,” he said while interacting with a delegation of ration dealers of the areas who met him to discuss the issue.
The delegation apprised Tony about the issue and urged him to resolve the same on priority basis as there is serious chaos among the people about the curtailment.
The DDC member took up the matter with Commissioner Secretary, FCS&CA Department, Simrandeep Singh and narrated the issue urging him to address the same at the earliest.
The Commissioner Secretary passed direction and asked officials to stop the practice of ration curtailment. The DDC member also appealed the Commissioner Secretary to restore ration quota for army personnel who served the country throughout their life and demanded restoration of kerosene supply to Suchetgarh area.
