Since the Corona epidemic, the government has also given the benefit of free rations to the poor and the needy, which is directly benefiting crores of people.

Big decision of the government

This news is very important for all the ration card holders who are taking advantage of the facility of free ration under the National Food Security Act. The government has now taken a big and decisive decision for all the ration card holders so that fake beneficiaries can be identified and the benefit will reach only the real needy.

Get E-KYC done by June 30

The government has given time till June 30, 2025, for this important task. All ration card holders must get their e-KYC (Electronic Know Your Customer) done by this date. If a ration card holder is not able to get his e-KYC done by June 30, then the free ration available on his ration card will be stopped. This is a step that no one would want to be deprived of, so it is necessary to take action immediately.

What will happen if e-KYC is not done

Not only will the ration be stopped, but the names of those ration card holders will also be removed from the beneficiary list, whose e-KYC has not been done. This simply means that if you want to get a ration again, then you will have to apply for a ration card again, which can be a long and complicated process. Therefore, it is wisest to get e-KYC done in time.

Not done e-KYC yet

If you have not yet got an e-KYC done for your ration card, then without wasting time, complete the process of e-KYC as soon as possible. Otherwise, you may also face difficulties and you may be deprived of important facilities like free ration. Make sure that your ration card remains active and that you continue to get all the benefits provided by the government.

How to get e-KYC done

Any ration card holder can get their e-KYC process completed by visiting their nearest Food Supply Department office or Ration Distribution Center. For this, they have to register their Aadhaar number and fingerprint (for biometric authentication) there. This process is usually very simple and quick.

Documents required for e-KYC

Although the process of e-KYC mainly requires an Aadhaar number and biometric authentication, for your convenience you can carry the following documents with you:

Ration card (original)

Aadhaar card (original and photocopy)

Bank passbook (if required, as sometimes the bank account is also linked)
