According to another source in the Food and Supplies

department, the government would provide tabs to various self help groups for helping them in procuring paddy.

"This is to help them run their work more smoothly. So the government has decided to provide each Self Help Group with a tab," he said.

With one SHG assigned to take care of three mouzas, around 10,000 self help groups would be engaged in the process of procuring paddy.

"One person from the Group will collect all the paddies from the mouza and then inform the department which will take the paddy from them. The HGs will be given around Rs 32 per quintal as commission," the officer said.
