Our Assessment

Food-grain distribution continues, but the promised monthly Akshay Anna basket—including groundnut oil, salt, sugar and spices—was not verified through a scheme order or distribution records. Existing grain entitlements and separate festival ration kits do not establish delivery of the full monthly basket.

The reasoning behind the verdict

Why this assessment?

Reviewed 25 Oct 2026

01 · Delivery status

Why pending?

Current PDS activity is documented, but no verified notification and recurring distribution evidence match the manifesto's specific monthly basket.

02 · Strength of evidence

Why medium confidence?

The state food department's transaction portal and published ration-kit procurement records establish other food programmes. They do not prove the named basket has begun; the finding is limited to reviewed sources.

What would help us reassess?

The documents that could clarify delivery of this commitment.

An Akshay Anna implementation order specifying the complete basket, eligible households and monthly entitlement, followed by dated procurement and recurring household distribution records.

Status describes delivery. Confidence describes the evidence.
