The Food and Civil Supplies Department will extend the direct supply of ration to tribal colonies across the State, Minister P. Thilothaman has said. Tribespeople need not approach ration shops to buy essential commodities once the facility is in place, Mr. Thilothaman pointed out. The Minister said that 1,700 Onam fairs would be organised in the State. Addressing the media here on Monday, he said that the scheme, now being implemented at Athirappilly in Chalakkudy in Thrissur district, would now be extended to other colonies as well before the Onam season. Corrections in ration cards will be made online from Wednesday, he added.
