Poor families in the country get food grains at affordable rates on the basis of ration cards. It is the responsibility of the state governments to make ration cards. By updating this list from time to time, food grains are supplied to the people at cheap prices. However, if discrepancies are found, the ration card is also cancelled. Ration cards can be canceled due to many reasons. If you do not use your ration card to buy food grains for a long time, your card may get cancelled.
Under the National Food Security Scheme, food grains are provided to the ration card holders. In this, on the basis of the number of family members, under the public distribution system, the government provides ration to the people at a cheap rate. How much ration did you take in which month and how many members are there in your family. All such information is in the ration card. Grain will be available in the ration shop only after having a ration card.
These are the rules
If the ration card holder has not taken ration for six months, then it is considered that he does not need the ration available at cheaper rates or he is not eligible for ration. In such a situation, on the basis of these reasons, the ration card of the person who has not taken ration for six months is canceled. Similar rules apply in Delhi, Bihar and Jharkhand.
