Answer:
The 'National Food for Work Programme(NFWP), 2004 was launched by minister of rural development, central government on November 14, 2004 in 150 of the most backward districts of India with the objective of generating supplementary wage employment. The programme is open for all Indian poors who are ready to do manual unskilled labour work and are in the need of wage employment. It is implemented as a centrally-sponsored scheme. Food grains are provided to the States free of cost.The transportation cost, handling charges, and taxes on food grains will, however, be the responsibility of the States. It have always been better to supply food grains free of cost instead of distributing money among them.
