The great game of rice has been begun. First Congress promised 25kg of rice or wheat at Rs 3 a month for every family below the poverty line. Now BJP looks to respond with a similar scheme with food grain for the poor at even cheaper rates.
It may eat up to Rs 5000 crore of tax payers money and if BJP comes with a lower price then even harder hit. Well its not there money so they don’t have hesitation to spend any money. How many of them spend even a penny of their legitimate earnings for similar good cause.
