Public Distribution System and Tribal Development

The present research work entitled "Public Distribution System and Tribal Development" focuses on the measures it has been taking to meet the tribals’ food requirements. It examines how efficient the PDS has been in providing the food requirements. It also takes into account the various issues of the tribals relating to their food requirements. The objective of the study is to get a clear insight into the major problems of food of the tribals and the contribution of the Public Distribution System in solving it. Based on practical observations during the field investigation, workable suggestions are also made, which it is hoped, would be found helpful in solving the problems by the Government and other related agencies which are involved in the PDS.
