FOOD SECURITY (RICE CREDIT LINE) Introduction: Medak district has faced severe draught due to low rainfall since past 4 years due to which cultivation of food crops decreased increasing the prices of the commodities and also decreased wage days due to decreased cultivation. This resulted in hunger and starvation deaths. Even food for work programme could not create impact. With the intension to provide food security during lean days to the Pop / poor and to contain escalation of prices in off-season the Food Security scheme is implemented in two ways i.e., RCL & PDS. People cannot purchase rice at a time for 6 months hence it was decided to purchase paddy at the time of harvesting, convert it to rice and supply to the Pop / Poor SHG members so that good quality rice of the choice of the POP/ poor was supplied at cheaper price. PDS is implemented in the interior & remote mandals 9

It is a symbol of dignity. It is self respect and its power. In the rural areas a person is worth the land he possesses. In spite of the efforts made by the Government the poor face problems in getting secured title or possession over the lands. If they have physical possession they do not have title to it, so they can not invest increasing its productivity. If they have title over the land they do not know where actually their land located. If they have both their land is located in litigation. It has been the experience of IKP that the poor are not able to take advantage of the Government pro-poor land legislations and programmes. Government felt a system required which provides a plat form to them and a facilitator who supports them in dealing with their land issues. Addressing the land issues of the SC,ST, poor people a system Legal Assistance program for land introduced in IKP. This system is equipped with the Paralegals, Community Surveyors, Legal Coordinator and Land Manager. They act as bridge between the poor and System in resolving their land issues. 12
