The state government will supply nine essential commodities at Rs. 185 to the poor from Thursday, under the "Amma Hastham" scheme.
Minister for Civil Supplies D Sridhar Babu said that this scheme would come into force from Ugadi, and that white-card holders can avail themselves of it.
"Under the scheme, nine essential commodities will be supplied, at subsidisied rates. White-card holders can take only commodities they need. They need not buy all the nine items," he said. (INN)
