“I have decided that the BJP government will extend the scheme of providing free rations to 80 crore poor people in the country for the next 5 years. Your love and blessings always give me the strength to make sacred decisions,” PM Modi said.
Addressing a public rally in poll-bound Chhattisgarh, PM Modi took a swipe at the Congress party, accusing it of prioritising financial gains and frequently engaging in corrupt activities.
The Pradhan Mantri Garib Kalyan Anna Yojana (PMGKAY) was introduced during the COVID-19 pandemic, under which the Central government supplied 5 kg of food grain free of cost to individuals.
