Food security
The twenty-four districts of Jharkhand receive supplemental food security supplies as per the National Food Security Act, 2013 of India.[19] In the past, food supplies were distributed to the districts in phases, which some have criticized as problematic.[19] In June 2015, Ram Vilas Paswan, the Minister of Consumer Affairs, Food and Public Distribution for the government of India stated a preference toward the Food Security Act to be implemented all at once, rather than in phases.[19] In this manner, Paswan stated a preference for distributions to be completed in entirety by September 1, 2015.[19]
