Answer 1

Answer:

Once a family has been recognized as eligible, they are given a unique "Antyodaya Ration Card". This card, also called the PDS yellow card, acts as a form of identification, proving that the bearer is authorized to receive the level of rations the card describes. The color of the card is yellow.

Answer 2

Answer:

A National Sample Survey Exercise pointed out that about 5% of the total population in India sleeps without two square meals a day. The Public Distribution System (PDS) later revamped to the Targeted Public Distribution System (TDPS) aimed at providing food and grains to the needy. To make the TPDS more beneficial and more focussed towards the right category of population, the Antyodaya Anna Yojana (AAY) was launched in December 2000. AAY is the Government scheme that was launched to provide highly subsidised food to one crore poorest of the poor families in India.
