Government to set up subsidised staple food stores at Delhi Metro Stations

The first store will be opened at Central Delhi's Rajiv Chowk metro station, to tap into the high footfall it receives. It will be owned and operated by National Cooperative Consumers' Federation of India Ltd (NCCF) - an organisation that procures agricultural commodities like food grains, pulses, spices, oil seeds, pharmaceutical items and other consumer goods on behalf of the government and sells to consumers at reasonable rates.
