The government’s Onam food kit disruption has been partially hit with an unexpected server glitch disrupting the drive in several ration outlets in the State.
The snag has persisted in various parts since the first day of the distribution on August 23. Many ration outlets reported similar complaints with ration cardholders forced to wait for long until the responsive electronic point of sale (e-PoS) machines resumed functioning on Thursday.
The government had prepared a distribution schedule wherein Antyodaya Anna Yojana cardholders (yellow cards) were supposed to receive their kits by Wednesday. While Priority Household cardholders (pink card) will be allotted kits from Thursday till August 27, the kits for Non-Priority Subsidy cards (blue) will be distributed from August 29 to August 31 and those for the Non-Priority Non-Subsidy cards (white) from September 1 to 3.
