Issue of Ration under NFSA to various Institution of Lakshadweep

After Implementation of National Food Security Act(NFSA) in UT of Lakshadweep, the issuance of ration is totally regulated through digital ration card. The food grains is issued to only those person who are holding digital ration card.
 
As this is a very good idea to stop the illegal food pilferage  but digital ration card is issued  only to the individuals therefore some institutions which serve food to their employees or students have raised their concerned to Lakshadweep Administration to their inability to draw ration from ICS and therefore they are facing problem. These problem was raised by OICs of IRBn too so after taking a sympathic view the Lakshadweep Administration has decided to issued rice to these institutions on availability basis with following conditions:
 The grains may be provided if and only if grains are available in buffer stock.
  • The beneficiaries department will have no automatic right over allocated food grains. the availability will subjected to the clause 1 and on demand basis.
  • The issue of the food grain will be as per order of preference in the list.
  • The price of the food grain(rice) so sold will be Rs. 33.50/kg
The Island wise  preference list is as under:
