Ration shops also, known as Fair Price Shops , keep stock of food grains, sugar, and kerosene for cooking. These items are sold to people at a price lower than the market price. However, there are problems of functioning of the ration shops:
-
Poor individuals
receive food that is of lower quality
than what is typical for foodgrains.
-
The
ration store deals commit fraud
and fail to give the underprivileged the full amount they are due.
-
Some ration shops
don't open on a regular basis
, which is uncomfortable for the underprivileged.
- Even incorrect entries are updated by ration shop owners under the names of the underprivileged.
