C. THE TARGATED PUBLIC DISTRIBUTTION SYSTEM IN THE DISTRICT:
The Targeted Public Distribution System has covered all the sections of the society in the District. The District has unique geographical features
comprising of plain, Tarai and hilly terrain with altitude ranging from 300ft to 19,000 ft. Similarly the Darjeeling District has multi climatic
characteristics hot summer in the plain and freezing cold in the high altitude.
The Targeted Public Distribution System has covered all the sections of the society in the District. There are three types of Distribution systems;
(1). Normal TPDS covering the Siliguri Sub Division, (2). The Hill PDS, covering the three Hill Sub Divisions of the District, namely Darjeeling,
Kalimpong & Kurseong and (3). The WBPDS (Special provision for tea gardens).
Introduction of Hill PDS:
During the introduction of TPDS in the year 1997, the Government allowed upto 35% of total population to cover under BPL category.
The people of hill areas under DGHC refused to accept the 35% coverage, rather they demanded 100% coverage under BPL.
Since the available quota of foodgrains were only 35%, the govt. introduced special price as under agreed by the people of the hills after
negotiation, with no- loss no -profit basis with 70% APL & 30% BPL Quota to all consumers @ less than the existing APL price but more than BPL
price. This system is locally known as Hill PDS (HPDS).
Price structure of HPDS & scale of Distribution
Commodity
Scale of distribution
Unit/month
Rice 3200gm 7.00
Wheat 1000gm 5.00
Atta 2800 gm 6.70
Sugar 500gm 13.50
Price per kg (Rs)

Only in Kalimpong Sub Division 90,006 IRC holders (18,500 families) have been covered under BPL category. They are getting food grains at
BPL rate through FPS. In other two Hill Sub Divisions no foodgrains are distributed at BPL rate. But there are AYY & AP schemes in all three Sub
Divisions of Hill under DGHC.
At present, APL quota of wheat is allotted to provide wheat (grains) @ 1kg per unit/month only and the rest quota of wheat for Whole meal
fortified Atta. The rice for HPDS is provided under BPL quota.
As much, BPL may be introduced in the Hill Sub Divisions for the benefit of the poor rationees.
D. Introduction of fortified Whole meal Atta in PDS
1. With an aim to supplement micronutrient deficiencies commonly found in the hill areas of Darjeeling district, fortified whole meal Atta
introduced in Darjeeling Sadar Sub-division for the first time in West Bengal in the year 1998 covered by all categories of rationees.
2. In the year 2004, distribution of fortified whole meal Atta through PDS introduced in Kalipong & Kurseong sub-division covered by all
categories Rationees.
3. At last, fortified whole meal Atta introduced in Siliguri Sub-division in the year 2007 to cover up BPL beneficiaries only.

NECESSARY STEPS TO BE TAKEN FOR BETTER PROCUREMENT AS WELL AS IMPROVEMENT OF PUBLIC DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM
1. Due to unavailability of procurement fund, it is always not visible to pay rupees to the Rice Millers and for this reason Rice Millers are not interested to give levy at F&S Department so fund
placement should be regularised, so that within 48 hours, requisite payment can be paid to the Rice Millers.
2. At least one Govt. Godown should be built up in each block,
3. There is one Hired vehicle in this District, with maximum allotment is Rs 13000 per month i.e. payment of hired vehicles as well as cost of Fuel, total expenditure should not exceed Rs 13000 per
month. Department should provide more vehicle so that close monitoring can be done and collection of procurement of Rice will be enhanced. Further At least one vehicle should be provided to
each Sub-Divisional Controller (F&S) and at least two cars should be provided in favour of D.C.F&S for perfect monitoring of the system.
4. Improvement of Public Distribution can be done if E-Governance system can be started from H.Q to grass root level that Dealers points. Fully computerized system should be started at Dealers
Point and for this purpose Digital Ration Card should be issued first that card to be purchased in Computer where in voucher containing all relevant data to be printed out and accordingly allotment
to be given to that consumer.
5. Every consumers should be provided a token and he should have right to choice the dealer and in this way has right to buy better quality of Foodgrains from any dealers.
7. Number of Inspecting staff is not sufficient, immediately Inspecting staff should be enhanced so that monitoring of each shop can be done properly.
