## A N S W E R

MINISTER OF STATE FOR  CONSUMER AFFAIRS, FOOD & PUBLIC DISTRIBUTION

(SHRI C. R. CHAUDHARY)

(a): The Targeted Public Distribution System (TPDS) is now governed as per the provisions of the National Food Security Act, 2013 (NFSA) which provides for coverage of 75% of the rural and 50% of the urban population, i.e.  about  two-thirds of the total population of the country, for receiving highly  subsidized  foodgrains.  Coverage  under  the  Act  is  under  two categories-  households  covered  under  Antyodaya  Anna  Yojana  (AAY)  to the  extent  specified  by  the  Central  Government  and  the  remaining households as priority households.

Allocation  of  foodgrains  to  States/Union  Territories  (UTs)  under NFSA is made on the basis of identification of beneficiaries reported by the States/UTs within the State/UT-wise coverage of population determined by the then Planning Commission, and foodgrains entitlement prescribed  under  the  Act  i.e.  35  kg  per  household  per  month  for households covered under AAY and 5 kg per person per month for Priority households. The Act further provides that if on the  above basis, annual foodgrains  allocation  to  any  State/UT  is  lower  than  the  average  annual offtake during 2010-11 to 2012-13 under erstwhile normal TPDS, the same shall be protected.

The allocation for Mid-Day-Meal, Scheme for Adolescent Girls, Wheat Based  Nutrition  Programme  and  Annapurna  Scheme  is  made  as  is demanded  by  the  concerned  Ministries  as  per  their  norms.  Allocation under 'Welfare Institutions and Hostels Scheme' is based on number of beneficiaries and scale of distribution.

(b): The details of allocation and offtake of foodgrains under TPDS is at Annexure-I and the details of allocation and offtake of foodgrains under Other Welfare Schemes is at Annexure-II.

(c) & (d):  Requests have been received from time to time from States/UTs for increasing their coverage/ allocation mandated under NFSA. However, since  the  coverage  and  allocation  under  NFSA  is  based  on  a  formula based approach devised by the erstwhile Planning Commission, applicable  uniformly  to  all  the  States/UTs,  no  revision  is  possible  in respect of any particular State/UT.

Requests are received from State Governments/ UT Administrations for  additional  allocation  of  foodgrains  in  case  of  Festivals,  Natural Calamity and Law & Order situation. Additional allocation of foodgrains is made at Minimum Support Price (MSP)/ MSP derived rate in case of wheat and rice respectively, as per extant norms of the Department.
