When you enroll in any government scheme, you must meet eligibility requirements and other conditions to receive benefits. For example, to receive the free ration provided by the government, you must be eligible and possess a ration card. Recently, it has become mandatory for all ration card holders to complete e-KYC . The department has ordered that all ration card holders must visit their ration dealer to complete this process. This raises the question: will those who do not complete e-KYC be denied free ration? Let’s find out.
The department has mandated e-KYC to remove names of ineligible members, such as those who are married or deceased, from ration cards. This ensures that only active members receive the ration.
Ration card holders must complete e-KYC by June 30, 2024. This is the target date set by the department for all ration dealers.
Many are concerned whether they will be denied free ration without completing e-KYC. If a ration card lists five members, and one member’s fingerprints are unavailable, or they are married or deceased, that member's name will be removed from the ration card. Ration will then be available only for the remaining active members.
e-KYC is free and should be completed at your government ration shop. Your fingerprints will be taken on a POS machine to complete the process. You do not need to pay or go anywhere else for e-KYC.
By understanding these requirements and completing e-KYC on time, you can ensure you continue to receive the benefits of the free ration scheme.
