Most likely they will be resold. Imagine my surprise when I saw TN govt-supplied tv set at a relative's place in Hyderabad. When I asked him about it, he said something like, "oh, I went to TN on an assignment, and somebody who works on the (construction) site sold it to me for 2k". I guess that's the fate of most PDS-supplied rations too. Vamsee. _______________________________________________ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
