Bengaluru, Oct 4: The Karnataka High Court on Monday ordered notices to Food and Civil Supplies Minister U T Khader and the state government on a petition against the new system of food grain distribution.

They said they were facing hardship in collecting their share of food grain under the coupon system. Since most of the beneficiaries are daily wage workers holding BPL ration cards, they cannot queue up to collect their food grain and leave their jobs.
The government counsel, however, argued before the court that the new system was introduced to weed out bogus cards and to bring transparency in the public distribution of food grain. Justice A S Bopanna ordered the notices and adjourned the hearing until October 24.

yereg awuya kiri kiri yenk borchi muklena sawu.
i request khader to leave the coupon policy and implement the easiest method to distribute the food grains.
MR UTK, what u know being a good politician u have to understand the situation of bpl card holder, bpl card is given to below poverty line people, so they have to work daily to feed their family in between if they lose two days work for the coupon purpose this will be a terrible experiment.
yahh UT khader's main intention of introducing the coupons is only unemployed people should get the food others wont go up for the queue leaving their work.
yahh everybody facing the same problem, its totally a well planned tricks for the golmal because if this problem arise again and again people will stop to collect the food grains so those can be sold for money outside, dont know how extreme politician will go deep in future, i would like to thank akkayamma for raising the complaint.
