Khammam Beneficiaries Seek Ration Access Before August 31 Deadline
Ration shops shoo away beneficiaries from other areas · thehansindia.com

Some families in Khammam need to collect ration rice that was not taken earlier.

They may use a rule called portability to get ration from a shop near where they are staying.

This is helpful for migrant workers and families away from home.

Beneficiaries say some shop dealers refused to give rice to people registered in other areas.

They asked the Civil Supplies authorities to help.

The deadline to collect the pending three-month quota is August 31.

Officials were asked to check the shops and remind dealers about the portability rule.

Families also want help if technical problems or lack of information prevents them from receiving ration.
