Food security

The twenty-four districts of Jharkhand receive supplemental food security supplies as per the National Food Security Act, 2013 of India. [19] In the past, food supplies were distributed to the districts in phases, which some have criticized as problematic. [19] In June 2015, Ram Vilas Paswan, the Minister of Consumer Affairs, Food and Public Distribution for the government of India stated a preference toward the Food Security Act to be implemented all at once, rather than in phases. [19] In this manner, Paswan stated a preference for distributions to be completed in entirety by September 1, 2015. [19]
