Hi friend here is your answer

_____________________________

What are the criticism faced by public distribution system in india ? Explain
the criticism of PDS in India r :-

1.) failed to remove hunger
=> the PDS has been working for many years but still hunger is prevailing in Indian society.

2.) overflowing goods
=> The FCI godowns r overflowing with food grains. In 2002 the stock of wheat and rice was 63 million tonnes which was much more than the minimum stock. There is a general census that high level of buffer stock of food grains is very undesirable and can be wasteful.

3.) poor food grain quality
=> As most of the godowns have more stock than their capacity this leads to deterioration in grain quality.

4.) Adverse impact on environment
=> due to incentive by the gov most of the states r producing only rice and wheat. The intensive utilization of water in the cultivation of rice has led to environmental degradation and fall in the water level, threatening the sustainability of agricultural development in many states.
