Delhi launches India's first 'e-ration card' facility Saturday March 28,2015

 
Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Saturday March 28,2015 launched the country's first "e-ration card" facility in the national capital.

Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal  said the e-ration card will bring immense convenience to the people of Delhi as it will cut down the delays in preparation and delivery of ration cards to the beneficiaries
''Now the beneficiaries can print the ration card as soon as it is approved by the department (of food, supplies)," Arvind Kejriwal said during the launch

According to the Delhi government, as soon as the application for providing food security is approved by the food supply officer concerned, a message will be sent on the mobile number of the beneficiary informing him/her about approval of his/her application.
The beneficiary can visit the department's portal and enter the ration card number and other basic information. After that a password will be sent to the registered mobile number.
"After entry of this password, the e-ration card will be generated which can be stored in the electronic form and used to get ration. It can also be printed by the beneficiary from anywhere," said a Delhi government statement.
