For FY25, the authorities set a target of distributing 30 lakh tonnes of rice and wheat.
Between July last year and May 15 this year, 26.85 lakh tonnes were distributed, less than the 27.92 lakh tonnes delivered over the same period the year prior, according to the Ministry of Food.
Of the total food distributed this fiscal year, 21.31 lakh tonnes were channelled through food-friendly programmes and the OMS, up from 19.9 lakh tonnes in the previous year.
However, food ministry officials said the distribution of relief under social safety net programmes slowed in rural areas due to absence of elected local government representatives.
Programmes such as Food for Work, Vulnerable Group Feeding, and Vulnerable Group Development saw reduced delivery, with a total of 5.55 lakh tonnes distributed up to May 15 -- down from 7.5 lakh tonnes in the same period last year.
