Congress Party is making mockery of the poor people of this country by not passing the so-called food security bill in parliament. It was never been their policy and now making lot of political noises before the upcoming general election which is going to be held in 2014, to win sympathy of people so that the election can be won. In fact all political parties are busy in garnering support in favour or against the bill. All those political parties believed in market principles, reforming ( or deforming? ) this socialistic nation, now all of a sudden became very pro-people. Everybody now understands the gimick involved in it.
Now talking about the bill, it was never meant to be a food security of vast malority of Indian population. How come 25 kg / month of food grain of rice or wheat supplied to each family, that too, to targeted population, secure their families nutritional requirement? There were no additional supply of oil, sugar,
cereals etc. to over come the mal-nutrition of people.
People are already getting 35kg/month of grain through various schemes of the government, this bill will cut their monthly allotment of grains by 10 kg.
Further more, the price of the grain is also a factor. It is now available at Rs.1 or Rs.2 in different states of India, but government has fixed Rs.3/kg of grain in this bill. The supply of targeted population is another drawback of the bill.
We hope Government SHOULD STAY AWAY from politicking and should focus on the genuine requirments of people to alleviate mal-nutrition. For this, our suggestions would be

- To distribute rice or wheat at 35kg/month per family.
- To sell it at Rs.2/kg of grain.
- To distribute it to all except direct tax payers through out the country.
- To distribute oil, sugar, cereals etc. along with it.
