We Won. Chief Minister has responded to our petition and has agreed to distribute 10kg of rice & 5kg of wheat from May 2015 instead of transferring cash to bank accounts.
Here is the official budget document from Government's website (refer to section 102 in the document),

When I first came to know about this cash transfer scheme, I did not know how to take this to people. I created this petition on Change.org and shared with few of my friends.
I know, I cannot fight this all alone. So I needed all of your support. That's why I said, 'We Won' instead of 'I Won'. We're all on the same side.
I should also take this opportunity to thank the political cadres of Communist Party of India - Marxist in Puducherry, who came forward to join us in the fight. They were supposed to organize a mass rally and waiting struggle in front of Legislative Assembly tomorrow.
This is a huge victory for us and examples like this shows that we shouldn't fail to raise our voice in any form. United we stand, divide we fall. Let us all stand united.
Thank You for Signing this Petition.
