During the hearing, the Union Government told the court that 81 crore people are being given free ration under the National Food Security Act. On this, the court sarcastically asked Solicitor General Tushar Mehta and Additional Solicitor Aishwarya Bhati that this meant that now only taxpayers were left to get freebies.
