CM Yogi's major gift: 78,000 ration dealers to receive direct benefits..
Today marks a significant day for over 78,000 ration dealers in Uttar Pradesh. At an event held at Lok Bhawan, Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath will announce an increase in the additional benefit provided to these dealers from ₹90 to ₹125 per quintal. This decision will bring direct financial benefits to ration vendors across the state. Additionally, an e-PoS-based feedback system will be launched to enhance transparency and accountability within the public distribution system. Here are the details of this development:
**Benefits for 78,000 Ration Dealers**
The Uttar Pradesh government has provided major relief to more than 78,000 ration dealers associated with the ration distribution system. During the event at Lok Bhawan, Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath will announce a hike in the dealers' margin. The government has raised the margin from ₹90 to ₹125 per quintal, ensuring direct financial gain for fair-price shop owners across the state.
**An Additional ₹35 Per Quintal**
Under this decision, dealers will now receive ₹35 more per quintal for grain distribution compared to the previous rate. There had been long-standing demands to increase this margin; consequently, the government's move is considered highly significant for ration vendors. It is also expected to boost the income of thousands of families associated with the public distribution system.
**Launch of e-PoS-Based Feedback System**
Alongside this, CM Yogi will launch an e-PoS-based feedback system at the event. Through this new mechanism, beneficiaries will be able to directly record their experiences regarding ration distribution. The government aims to strengthen the grievance redressal process while simultaneously enhancing transparency within the public distribution system.
