Workers in unorganised sector to get rice at Rs 2 per kg
Thiruvananthapuram: LDF government in Kerala today decided to bring workers of the unorganised sector under the ambit of its Rs two per kg rice scheme. With this, the total number of families to benefit from the subsidised food grain scheme would go up to 3.5 million, Chief
Minister V S Achuthanandan told reporters after a state cabinet meeting.
Workers in several other categories had already been included in the scheme.
