Delhi Govt Won’t Take Credit for Ration-at-Doorstep Scheme: Arvind

CM Arvind Kejriwal noted that the ‘revolutionary scheme’ was going to start in Delhi from 25 March.

Responding to the Centre’s move to stop Delhi government’s ration-at-doorstep scheme, Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Saturday, 20 March, announced that the scheme will not have any name.

“Centre wrote to us yesterday that we can't implement it. The letter read that (the) scheme can't be called Mukhya Mantri Yojana. I held a meet with offices today and told them to remove the scheme's name. We'll just deliver ration at people's doorstep without the scheme having a name", said Kejriwal on Saturday, as quoted by ANI.

He further noted that the “revolutionary scheme” was going to start in Delhi from 25 March onwards and was a solution for those who had to stand in queues to get ration from shops and were facing issues, added the report.
