PDS was criticized for several reasons. A few of them are as follows:
1)Its bias towards the urban consumers and inability to reach to the last corner of the country.
2)Some states such as Bihar and UP were virtually out of the PDS network.
3)There are no criteria of monitoring the high income group purchases more than low income purchases.
4)The coverage and network of PDS does not ensure that the poorest or the poor is benefited/
5)The PDS has been untargeted and proved to be regressive in some parts of the nations.
6)Consumers get inferior food grains in ration shops. Because, the dealers replace good supplies received from the F.C.I. with inferior stock.
7)Issue of the bogus cards in large numbers which are used to procure the grains from the PDS and sell them in open market.
8)The dealers have little profit so indulge in malpractices.
In other words, despite of having world’s largest Public Distribution System, there are people dying in the country out of hunger.
