This document proposes solutions to address issues with India's Public Distribution System (PDS). It notes that only 10% of the intended benefits from PDS subsidies reach the poor. It suggests linking ration cards to Aadhaar numbers, basing poverty lines on asset ownership rather than income, and including families with working female heads. Other proposals include independent verification of eligibility, accountability for fair price shop owners, and audits of storage facilities to reduce leakage. However, challenges include additional costs and risks of corruption from strengthened oversight systems.
