The Government of India runs many schemes for the citizens of the country. Different citizens of the country get the benefit of these schemes. Even today many people in India are not able to arrange even two meals a day. The Government of India provides ration to such people at very low prices. Under the National Food Security Act, the Government of India provides ration at a low price under government food shops.
To get this ration, you must have a ration card. The government has made e-KYC mandatory for ration card holders. But now a big change has been made in it. Now if someone lives outside his home in another state. So he does not need to come to his state to get e-KYC done. Let us tell you how you can get e-KYC done in another state.
It is not necessary to come back to your city for e-KYC.
The Government of India has made e-KYC mandatory for all ration card holders. That is, if you do not get KYC done, then the facilities you are getting on the ration card can be stopped and your ration card can be canceled. If you want to give the benefit of facilities on your ration card and want to keep it running. So for that, you will have to get its eKYC done. EKYC had to be done by going to the government ration shop with an Aadhaar card biometric.
But now the government has changed it. Now if a person from UP is living in Delhi. So he does not need to come back to UP to get eKYC done. He can go to the nearest government ration shop in Delhi and complete the KYC process by putting his thumb through the Aadhaar card biometric.
Why is e-KYC being done?
There are crores of ration card holders in India. Who gets the benefit of a ration scheme at a lower price from the government? But there are many ration card holders whose family member has died. And ration is still being taken in their name under the scheme. Under the process of e-KYC, all the members of the ration card holder's family will have to complete a KYC. So that the names of those who are not present can be removed from the ration card.
