The points already decided seems to be covering all aspects of food for all. I would like to add a few more points. Schemes introduced by Amma are misused by few people. They are on dual addresses both at Tamil Nadu as well as neighbouring states. Poverty should be extended to all economically backward and not caste basis. Just like GOI appeals for giving up subsidy on gas, in the same affluent amongst some castes should voluntarily give up benefits. Agriculture income is enjoyed by everyone without tax liability. Even here certain reforms are needed. Some amount of revenue that accrues can be recovered. Corruption should the highest penalty and imprisonment for longer period. The present modes of punishment are rarely causing fear amongst such indulgents more
