A meeting regarding the implementation of the National Food Security Act (NFSA) and Aadhaar card in Baleswar district was held here on Tuesday.
After a videoconference with Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik, district Collector Pramod Das discussed with district-level officers and directed the CSO to remove all the ineligible beneficiaries from the list to include the eligible ones by end of this month. The Collector also directed them to complete the registration work of Aadhar card within next four months. The benefits of all Government schemes would be extended through the Aadhaar card registration number, Das said. Two registration number centres in each block would be opened for meeting the target cent per cent, he added.
