Pulses saved from PMGKAY scheme to be distributed free among AAY families in J&K JAMMU: The Jammu and Kashmir administration on Tuesday authorised a one-time allocation of 1.5 kilogram of pulses per family in the Union Territory under the Antyodaya Anna Yojana (AAY), according to an official spokesperson. The pulses would be given free of cost through the public distribution system on account of savings accrued from the Prime Minister Garib Kalyan Anna Yojana (PMGKAY) and the Atmanirbhar Bharat Abhiyan (ANBA) schemes with the food and civil supplies department, the spokesperson said. Quoting an order issued by the food, civil supplies and consumer affairs department, the spokesperson said the directors have been authorised to distribute a quantum of 266.57 MT of pulses among the AAY families, which fall under non-winter dumping areas and, hence, are accessible currently.
