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 people STARVING (for which YOU and I are indirectly responsible) every day for a meal.
Please suggest any alternative solutions you might want to.
