Answer 2

Cash transfer scheme and PDS:

• Cash transfer more efficient than public distribution system as direct transfer of cash is efficient way for extending food subsidy.

• Cash transfer scheme is an alternative to PDS because it ensures that benefits of food subsidy reach the poor people in the country.

• In PDS, the food is lost at every stage of delivery.
