India’s leading news paper ‘The Telegraph’ has published a false report about CRPF’s ration allowance where It claims that Government has cut the ‘Ration allowance’ of 3 lakhs CRPF troops.
According to The Telegraph report, CRPF personnel are set to be starved of their monthly “ration allowance”, apparently because of a cash crunch triggered by the economic crisis that the government denies.
The Modi government swears by its dedication to the men and women in uniform, yet, CRPF personnel are set to be starved of their monthly “ration allowance”, apparently because of a cash crunch triggered by the economic crisis that the government denies.https://t.co/1RHpzI28dA

The Telegraph journalist Imran Ahmed Siddiqui has published this report where he claimed, “Govt has stopped monthly ration money to its 3 lakh personnel as the force has no fund. It says home ministry has not released fund.”
Here is the @crpfindia internal communication dated Sept 13 saying it is stopping monthly ration money to its 3lakh personnel as the force has no fund. It says home ministry has not released fund. @HMOIndia @PMOIndia @dhinakaran1464 @ttindia @AmitShah @narendramodi pic.twitter.com/5CmpTZiOmp

After this report of The Telegraph, CRPF India responded and clarified that Report published in The Telegraph was a False news. No such decision is taken by govt of India.
The document states that ration money(RM) arrear of Rs22194 has been paid to all in July which is more than 6 times their monthly RM. Process for payment of RM(approx Rs3600) for this month is in progress, hence the contention that jawans have run out of ration money is incorrect https://t.co/36jCVAC9dy

Ministry of Home Affairs has also responded regarding this report and clarified it as a false news. According to Ministry of Home Affairs, On 12.7.2019 ,Rs 22,144 per head Ration money (arrears )was paid to around 2 lakh CRPF personnel who are drawing RMA(Ration Money Arrears).
A thread on the issue of @crpfindia ration money:

On account of the revision of Ration Money Allowance made by MHA on 12.7.2019 ,Rs 22,144 per head Ration money (arrears )was paid to around 2 lakh @crpfindia personnel who are drawing RMA.

MHA further stated, ” In this way CRPF troops have already received an amount Rs Rs 22,144 as Ration money in July which is equivalent to 6 months RMA (at present rates) and thus they have sufficient funds for messing. Hence the contention that jawans have run out of ration money is baseless and preposterous and there is no crisis whatsoever. “

MHA also said that The Ration Money Arrears (RMA) for September would also be paid shortly to CRPF troops.
Hence the contention that jawans have run out of ration money is baseless and preposterous and there is no crisis whatsoever. The RMA for September will also be paid shortly

CRPF remains ever committed to the welfare of its jawans.

So the report published in The Telegraph about cutting of CRPF’s Ration Money Arrears (RMA) is totally a false news.
