As part of market intervention programmes to arrest price rise
Mobile outlets of the Kerala State Civil Supplies Corporation (Supplyco) will tour all districts with subsidised commodities as part of the market intervention programmes aimed at tackling price rise, Minister for Food and Civil Supplies G. R. Anil said on Saturday.
The Legal Metrology Department will launch inspections across the State to check overpricing of commodities, he said.
The mobile Supplyco outlets will be inaugurated in Thiruvananthapuram on November 30. The scheme will be implemented in rest of the districts in the days that follow. Five mobile outlets will tour each district for two days. On a given day, a vehicle will cover at least five points in a taluk for supplying the items to ration cardholders, Mr. Anil said.

The Karnataka government has drafted a comprehensive master plan for the integrated development of Kukke Subrahmanya temple, the State’s highest revenue-generating temple managed by the Hindu Religious Institutions and Charitable Endowments Department. The redevelopment initiative is estimated to cost around ₹254 crore and aims to enhance infrastructure and facilities for devotees.
