Ration shops to function on Sundays
GENTLE persuasion for over a year at the Ministry level and the sound logic in the presentation of Akhil Bharatiya Grahak Panchayat’s Chennai unit helped a valid demand of consumers of Tamil Nadu being accepted by the State government. That is how the 1stand 2nd Sundays of every month were declared working days for all the ration shops in the State by Food Minister R Kamaraj during the ongoing State Assembly session. In any family, a Sunday is when all employed members have holiday and so would find sufficient time to visit the ration shop, if open on Sunday.
