VIJAYAWADA: Electronic Point of Sale (EPOS) will be introduced in 600 fair price shops in the district from March 1. To use this facility, necessary infrastructure would be made available to the shops, district collector Babu A said on Saturday.
Speaking at a training programme of the fair shop dealers here, the collector asked the dealers to take enough care for protection of the machine since they were sensitive in nature. If anything goes wrong with the machine, the dealers would be held responsible, he said. Around 200 fair price shop dealers, sub-collector S Nagalakshmi and district supply officer A Krishna Rao attended the camp.
