Describe the division of consumers in India and the difficulties associated with it.


The division of consumers in India and the difficulties associated with it:

(i)The consumers in India are divided into two categories : below poverty line (BPL) and above poverty line (APL), with the issue price being different for each category.

(ii)However, this categorisation is not perfect and a number of deserving poor have been excluded from the BPL category.

(iii)Moreover, some of the so called APL slip back to BPL, because of the failure of even one crop and it is administratively difficult to accommodate such shifts.
