The Public Distribution System (PDS) was evolved to ensure timely availability of foodgrain at affordable price to enhance food security particularly to the weaker sections of society. The State Government did not formulate guidelines for identification of beneficiaries and review of households. PDS consumers were denied of the intended benefit of having PDS items at prescribed scale and affordable price in a timely manner. Bank interest on Cash Credit Account was charged from the beneficiaries when credit facilities were not availed of and instead of availing of transport subsidy and Hill Transport Subsidy Scheme, the State Government charged  the cost of transportation to the beneficiaries by fixing high end retail price. There was short lifting of wheat and sugar against the allocation made by Government of India. There were instances of diversion of rice, wheat and kerosene. Monitoring, inspection and the activities of the vigilance committee at State and District level were found to be inadequate. Monitoring mechanism and inspection of FPS at different levels needs strengthening to prevent  pilferage of commodities.
