In Prime Minister Modi’s address, the system of One Nation One Ration Card Registration was informed that it would benefit the poor who left their village and moved to other cities in search of employment. He has said that through this scheme, people from any city or any village can now get ration by showing their ration cards in any other state in India. Ration can be taken by showing ration cards from any fair price shop through one nation one ration card.
What is the purpose of this scheme
Through the One Nation One Ration Card scheme, every poor and needy family across the state who have ration cards can get ration at any place in the country. Through this scheme, the expression cannot compel the goods from its assured ration shop to take ration from ration shops anywhere across the country. The objective of the scheme is to provide that the migrant labourers who work in other States in search of employment can take their share of foodgrains from the ration shop of that state and no person in the country has to starve. Through this scheme, the Ministry of Food has set a target of fully implementing the scheme in all the States of the country by 2021.

There is no need to have a new ration card under One Nation One Ration Card. The scheme will identify the beneficiary from the fingerprint identification machine at the ration card shops through biometric identification of the beneficiary and thereafter the ration will be provided to him.

After the implementation of the Forest Nation One ration card scheme, the person can buy cheaper ration by showing his ration card in any part of the country.
