The Karnataka government has announced the provision of an additional 5 kilograms of rice starting from February, as part of the pre-poll Anna Bhagya guarantee. This will be added to the 10 kg of rice already promised to each member of families below the poverty line (BPL). The total includes 5 kg of rice supplied by the Centre under the National Food Security Act, 2013. This move aims to assist low-income families in the state with essential food security.
