Karnataka’s Food and Civil Supplies Minister, KH Muniyappa on Thursday, resolved issues pertaining to the termination of Below Poverty Line (BPL) provision cards, reported the ANI.
He validated that households still fulfilling qualification requirements will certainly not shed their BPL cards among a state testimonial procedure focused on evaluating cardholder qualification.
The declaration can be found in feedback to the resistance Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), which has actually required the resignation of the priest over the BPL card terminations.
Muniyappa stressed that the federal government’s testimonial is planned to determine and fetch cards from disqualified owners. He reported that just one to 2 percent of BPL cards have actually been transformed to Above Poverty Line (APL) condition.
“Today we have decided (that there is) no question of cancelling (the BPL cards). Every card is eligible. They will get the rice after one week. We have got enough money to disburse for the DBT (direct bank transfer). There is no money-related problem. The only thing is that while we are doing this one or two per cent of BPL cards have been converted to APL (Above Poverty Line). That`s why today we have decided, the honourable Chief Minister has taken a decision that all the (BPL) cards must be restored except for government employees and income tax payers,” Muniyappa informed ANI.
Reacting to BJP requiring his resignation over the problem, he stated that BJP was a resistance event and it was their obligation to ask (for resignation). “It is not required,” mentioned ANI.
“We have decided to convert BPL cards belonging to taxpayers and government employees. 4,036 government employee cards have been revised. 1,02,509 cards are being reviewed and 8,647 BPL cards have been cancelled,” Muniyappa stated.
In feedback to the BJP’s complaints of the federal government denying individuals of food, Deputy Chief Minister DK Shivakumar protected the federal government’s activities, mentioning, “& ldquo;We are not taking anybody’s food away. BJP has nothing else service than politicising. The percent of BPL card owners in several constituencies is around 90&&# 37.(* )constituency has 90&&# 37, and My has 92&&# 37 BPL card owners. Holenarasipura, we require to guarantee that authentic and clingy individuals obtain BPL cards. Hence BPL cards have actually been terminated after testimonial.”& rdquo;Some(
