Fortified rice has been introduced in 269 districts of 27 states under the Targeted Public Distribution System (TPDS).
The Union Food Secretary further said that 100% coverage has been attained by March 2023.
With 105 lakh tons being distributed under TPDS, an additional 29 lakh tons was lifted by States/ UTs under the ICDS and PM Poshan.
Though there has been certain complaints regarding that rice from states like Kerala but further scientific evidence is being looked for possible solutions.
