The kerosene will be distributed through Fair Price Shops to beneficiaries holding Antyodaya and Priority category ration cards.<\/p>\n<p>Under the distribution plan, ration card holders in urban areas will receive up to one litre of kerosene per card, while those in rural areas\u2014both Scheduled and Non-Scheduled regions\u2014will be entitled to a maximum of two litres.<\/p>\n<p>The state government has directed all District Collectors to ensure timely lifting and distribution of the allocated kerosene. Officials have also been asked to conduct local awareness campaigns to inform beneficiaries about their entitlements under the scheme.<\/p>\n<p>To avoid shortages, authorities have been instructed to redistribute any surplus stock from Fair Price Shops where demand is low to outlets facing higher demand. The Food Department has mandated that the lifting of the April allocation be completed by April 30, 2026. Oil company officials have also been asked to submit details of any unutilized quotas to the department by the same date.<\/p>\n<p>According to departmental data, Bilaspur district has received the highest allocation of 36 kiloliters. Districts including Bastar, Kanker, Janjgir-Champa, Korba, Durg, Baloda Bazar-Bhatapara, Mahasamund, Raipur and Jashpur have each been allotted 24 kiloliters, while the remaining districts of the state have been allocated 12 kiloliters each.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>528 Kiloliters to Be Distributed to Antyodaya and Priority Ration Card Holders Across State<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":6782,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[116,118,117],"tags":[1092,345],"class_list":["post-6781","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-breaking-news","category-chhattishgarh","category-state","tag-kerosene-allocation","tag-ration-card"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.7 -
