The Congress party has accused the Indian government of adversely impacting
the most vulnerable sections of society through its decision to halt the
sale of rice and wheat under the Open Market Sale Scheme (OMSS) to state
governments. The discontinuation of this program, which aimed to provide
essential food commodities at subsidized rates, has raised concerns about
food security for those in need. The Congress party claims that the
government’s decision will disproportionately affect marginalized
communities who heavily rely on such schemes for their sustenance. The move
has sparked debates about the government’s approach to social welfare and
its commitment to supporting the underprivileged.
