What a great step..!! during the congress reign for more than a decade..selling of PDS items in the market in Manipur are a common phenomena. They are the most hopeless govt. for the people I hv ever seen in my life.
A very bold step i sud say but it will be a booster to the traders and the price will rock sky high only the poor are to weep until an unless targeted public distribution system is maintained
Then where to sell is he promise to give free ration to whom
Really
