PDS quota: NFIW hits out at Centre

Kannur, Kerala, Apr 22 (UNI) The National Federation of Indian Women (NFIW) today accused the Centre of cutting down on Kerala's PDS quota due to political considerations.

Inaugurating the Party's Mahila Sanghamam here, NFIW Secretary Ani Raja alleged that the Centre had done so, thinking that the Left Democratic Front Government in the State would bag all the credit if the State's entire demands were met.

She alleged that the Centre had adopted ''anti-people and anti-poor'' policies.
