Giving this information here today the Deputy Commissioner Mr Praneet said that all the 178421 beneficiaries in district will be distributed wheat through this system.He said that the beneficiary families are being distributed 5 kg wheat per person/ per month for Rs 2 per kg at the ration depots. The e PoS machines have introduced unmatched transparency in the system wherein the finger print and iris imaging of the beneficiary are used for biometric identification so that ration is not distributed to a person who is not a beneficiary. The beneficiary is given allocated ration and its receipt on the spot. The machine enables only beneficiary or his or her family members to get the ration. No person, other than beneficiary, can claim the ration.
