Rs 2 per kg Rice or Wheat
by usa on Apr 11, 2008 03:30 PM

Government should distribute 20 kg rice or wheat at Rs 2 per kg per ration card through Public Distribution System

1. Will have a 'cascading' effect on remaining food items and will help in reducing the prices and inflation.
2. Will create 'demand' for agricultural products and will 'prevent' farmers suicide.
3. Will prevent 350 million Indians 'starving' every day for a 2nd meal.
