Answer:

$\large\bf\color{grey}{What~is~public~distribution~system~(PDS)?~What~are~the~limitations~of~the~public ~distribution~system?~Mention~any~two~.}$

1. a. Limited benefits to the poor : Under the PDS, food grains are provided to the Nation Card holders only. The seasonal migrant labour and homeless people do not get this benefit as they do not have a permanent residential address.
2. b. Regional disparities : Large number of the BPL families in the less developed states do not avail the benefits of the PDS.
3. c. Urban bias : The transport system in the villages is not efficient. As a result, the food grains and Kerosene are not available in the fair price shops in the villages.
