In this article Prof.Reetika Khera writes how Food security act has reduced leakages and it is important that govt puts it's energy improving the same rather than wasting energy on actions like #ekyc which can derail PDS.

This notice by @Food_Odisha says ration card will be cancelled if people fail to do #eKYC by 25.09.24. A state with huge numbers of migrants, it has created huge panic and unnecessary move by the department. It must stop @CMO_Odisha

[OdishaFightsCorona @CitizensOdisha]

Such small time period for such an important issue is sheer harassment of ration card holders in the state, this most stop @Food_Odisha @CMO_Odisha

I participated in debate today at @NaxatraNews1 on the claim by the state govt on ration card deletion. I spoke on the need to focus on adding the left out rather than spending energy on deletion of ration card and strengthening the #PDS in the state https://t.co/nPbNv9r96t

Each social security #pension holders could have got additional 833 rupees per month with this 1000 crore. Such an unnecessary and expensive renaming process #Odisha @CMO_Odisha

Extremely worrying, 4 #TrainAccident in 5 days, don't we have a @RailMinIndia or is it in auto pilot mode @AshwiniVaishnaw

[ସମୀତ Sameet @SameetPanda]

Looking at the frequency of #Railaccident it seems the @RailMinIndia is competing with Bihar Govt interms of #Bridgecollapse very worrying. Now the most incompetent reelway minister @AshwiniVaishnaw can't visit all accident sites even if he wants

Dear @Abanikanta_1978 sir, it seems the portal of Odisha State Food Comission has been taken offline or at least not publicly accessible. The portal of an important commission must be brought online immediately @Food_Odisha @CMO_Odisha

[OdishaFightsCorona @CitizensOdisha]

We find it strange that portal of a comission cease to exist

Mody Antoinette! “Toh kya sabke sab gareeb honey chaahie?” This was PM’s response when asked why are rich getting richer and poor getting poorer in his rule. #EndTheBillionaireRaj

[Right to Food, India @rozi_roti]

Over the past five years, the price of a home-cooked vegetarian thali in Mumbai surged by 65%. Yet, wages for casual laborers in urban Maharashtra rose by only 37%, and salaried workers saw a 28% increase

Only adding fancy train for rich and forcing poor to travel like cattle for days by reducing sleepers and general compartments, why don't you travel in the sleeper class in any of the long distance train @AshwiniVaishnaw

[ସମୀତ Sameet @SameetPanda]

This is status of my coach S2 in train no 13352, I have booked my seat but the whole compartment has more than 500 people. You are just harrassing people even after paying full fare @AshwiniVaishnaw @RailMinIndia @kapsology #TRAIN

#PDS should include dal and millets should be included in #MDM, Odisha should give legal mandate to right to health services including higher investment in primary health care, an interview of professor #JeanDreze by @Gargyreporter published in the @sambad_odisha today

[Right to Food Campaign, Odisha @OrissaRtf]

The pension system of #Odisha of giving cash in hand has worked for ages and has necessary transparency and accountability mechanism. Rather than dictating mode of disbursement @MoRD_GoI should increase the pension amount which has remained the same @ Rs 200 for last 20 years

[ସମୀତ Sameet @SameetPanda]

In the article in @scroll_in on social security #pension in #Odisha @samalochana and myself have highlighted how the system of giving cash in hand works for most but the push for digital system is fraught with errors and frauds and will leave many behind https://t.co/5DW1Z9ykFX

In the editorial @DharitriLive1 has rightly called for abolition of #Aadhaar as it has become reason for harrasment and hardship faced by crores of citizens for the mandatory #Aadhaar imposition on every schemes now including the recent #ABPS under MGNREGA from this January.

[Right to Food, India @rozi_roti]

The Public Distribution System is much more than #PMGKAY
Improve legal entitlements, not mask them as election doles.
The
right to food must be enshrined by the constitutional guarantee of
#NFSA as a legal entitlement & not as a handout or as part of any political promises.
