According to the Food Minister, currently the work of the Food and Population Department is going on in the offices of each Sub-Divisional Governor.

The office will be fine, the corporation will extend a hand of cooperation. In this case, along with the food director, the management director of the corporation will also take forward the work of the food department. He claimed that the business will be done with the help of the corporation. As transport, electricity, agriculture department is doing business with the help of corporation. He said clearly, the public distribution system will not be transferred to the corporation. The Government of Tripura will be responsible for the overall management of the public distribution system.

Meanwhile, Ration Mitra will deliver the ration to the homes of senior consumers; the food department has a similar plan. According to him, there are many elderly consumers who go on rations and face difficulties in procuring items. For them, Ration Mitra will deliver the goods to their homes.
