Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is option 4 i.e. Identification of eligible households.
As per the National Food Security Act (NFSA), 2013, the responsibility of the state/UT government is to identify eligible households. This includes identifying households that qualify for subsidized food grains under the Public Distribution System (PDS) based on criteria set by the government.
Other options, such as transportation of food grains, allocation, and delivery, are primarily the responsibilities of the central government or the Food Corporation of India (FCI).
