Your answer:  ·  Correct: D

Explanation

Anna Chakra is a specialized supply chain optimization tool developed through a collaboration between the United Nations World Food Programme (WFP) and the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Delhi. It is designed to enhance the efficiency of India's Public Distribution System (PDS). The tool utilizes advanced mathematical modeling and optimization algorithms to streamline the logistics network, including the location of Fair Price Shops (FPS) and the movement of food grains from warehouses. By identifying the most cost-effective routes and reducing transportation lead times, Anna Chakra helps in minimizing operational costs and ensuring timely delivery of essential commodities to beneficiaries. This initiative supports the Government of India's efforts to modernize the Targeted PDS (TPDS) and improve food security through technological intervention.
