How to Do Ration Card KYC 2025 | How to Complete Ration Card eKYC from Mobile
If you are a ration card holder, a big update has been announced regarding ration card KYC. The government has made it mandatory to complete ration card KYC by 30 April 2025 to continue receiving benefits like free food grains.
Why Ration Card KYC is Important
If you do not complete the KYC process by the deadline, your ration card may become inactive and you could lose benefits under various government schemes.
Additionally, if you have become a government servant after your ration card was issued, you are required to surrender the ration card as ration benefits are meant for low-income families, laborers, and the economically weaker sections.
