Résumé

Under the Order, the Central Government has increased the criteria for the people eligible for subsidized food benefits. The Order states that no new beneficiaries would be added to the Antodaya Anna Yojana (Central Government sponsored scheme to provide highly subsidised food to poor families in India) to replace those who become ineligible due to either migration or improvement in their status or death. Further, the Order also states that each State Government shall conduct regular inspections of the fair price shops located in the State.
