Editorial : Failure to feed needy , medically treat poor
- An appeal to Honourable Supreme Court of India
At the outset we salute all health care workers ,
doctors , nurses and police for ensuring health care of all
and containing spread of Corona virus. Both central and state governments are
putting their maximum efforts to feed the needy. Please read the
following articles.
However
these efforts are getting derailed by greedy people :
1.
PDS shops are collecting money for ration. The weighment of ration provided is
also less and all ration items are not given.
2.
Government is disbursing relief aid based on BPL data. Most of the BPL
card holders have got BPL card by their political connections and they
are capable of feeding themselves. Still they are getting reliefs
from government, NGOs. Whereas those who really need relief
aid don't have BPL card ( as they don't have political
connections ) and are denied relief.
3.
Government is transferring relief aid to Jan Dhan accounts. Here
also many of the account holders are well off.
The
intention of government is good. However greed of man know no
bounds. There are people who have cars, rented out houses, lending money in
lakhs still they have BPL card , Jan Dhan account , old age pension and
get all the benefits associated with it. They have political connections.
These
greedy fellows are literally snatching away food meant for the needy.
Hereby we request the honourable supreme court of india to order authorities :
1.
To give relief aid to the needy even if they don't have BPL card ,
Jan Dhan account.
2.
To take action against errant PDS shops.
3.
To identify fake BPL card, Jan Dhan and old age pension holders
and recover money from them.
4.
To initiate criminal prosecution of public servants who issued BPL cards
, old age pension , Jan Dhan accounts to rich , unfit people.
5.
We offer our conditional support to SCI to identify
fake BPL card holders, fake old age pensioners, fake Jan Dhan account holders.
6.
By denying BPL card, Jan Dhan account , Old age pension to needy
whereas giving the same to undeserving rich persons concerned
public servants are violating “ Right to Life “
of poor.
7.
Rich people have illegally got bpl card , by virtue of it get medical
facilities worth lakes of rupees in
premier hospitals free of cost. Whereas a genuine poor person doesn't get bpl card and suffer death due to lack of health care. Thereby government itself is murdering the poor by denying him
medical aid.
If
SCI doesn't act now, needy will starve to death without food or medical care whereas
greedy will snatch away relief meant for needy. It is robbery of tax
payers money. We request honourable SCI to protect poor
people's Right to Life ie right to food & medical aid.
Jai Hind. Vande Mataram.

Rich Must Give Up BPL Ration Cards Before Govt Acts, Warns Karnataka
CM Yediyurappa
Karnataka Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa on Tuesday directed
Deputy Commissioners to initiate action against 'rich' people who are in
possession of Below Poverty Line (BPL) ration cards.
His direction came two days after Food and Civil Supplies
Minister Umesh Katti came under fierce attack from party leaders over his
remarks on BPL ration card eligibility.
Yediyurappa told reporters that many affluent people have
violated rules and secured BPL cards and his government had been kind enough to
give adequate time to surrender such cards voluntarily.
"We need to maintain proper supply of grain under Public
Distribution Scheme (PDS) to eligible beneficiaries and action has to be taken
to prevent misuse of the benefits by ineligible persons," he said.
He added that all ineligible BPL ration card holders must return
the card voluntarily, if they do not want to face legal action.
Responding to a question, he said that the BJP government had
not changed any rules and it was implementing the same eligibility criteria
that had been in existence since 2017.
"We are not changing any norms to issue BPL cards. But, at
the same time, we cannot allow ineligible BPL card holders to thrive. Some rich
have taken BPL cards, they must return their cards voluntarily," he said.
"What is there to discuss on this topic," he said,
adding that the rules and directions which are in force since 2017 will
continue now too.
"We will collect penalty from such people. I advise
ineligible beneficiaries to return the cards in their own interest," he
reiterated.
For two days, Katti came under flak over his remarks that those
who own five acres of land, a fridge, a TV or a two-wheeler should return the
BPL ration cards.
According to a senior official in the Food and Civil Supplies
Department, the government was aware of norms being flouted by a section of
government employees and some of the BPL card holders even own tractors and
other vehicles. "We will act on such people first," he said.
