    Duplicate/Lost Ration Card

    By Nyaaya | Government and Politics, Identification Proof | 2 comments | 10 December, 2019 | 4

    This post is also available in: हिन्दी (Hindi)

    If your Ration Card is damaged or lost, you can approach the Circle Office, and ask them for a duplicate Ration Card. You will be given a new Ration Card, with the same details as your original.  To get a duplicate Ration Card, follow the steps given below: 

    Step 1 –  You should go to the Circle Office, and tell them that you need a duplicate Ration Card, on the basis of which, you will be provided with the relevant application form. 

    Step 2 – You should fill out the application form.

    Step 3 – You should submit the relevant documents. Generally, you will have to submit an FIR for the Ration Card, if it is lost. 

    Step 4 – You should get your documents verified.

    Step 5 –   You should collect your acknowledgement slip. 

    Step 6 – You can then collect your Ration Card/get it delivered. Some states have the facility to download it online. For example, in Delhi, you must download it. 

    If you require any additional help and support, please see here.

      Can a family not possessing a ration card get a No-Objection Certificate for getting ration card in another State?

        Ration Card is a document/identification proof issued by the State Governments in India to households that are eligible to receive subsidised food from the Public Distribution System under the National Food Security Act. With the newly launched “one-nation-one-ration-card-scheme” those who hold ration cards are now given an option to take their entitled quota of foodgrains from any Fair Price Shop (FPS) of their choice anywhere in the country or in any state, by using their same/existing ration card with biometric/Aadhaar based authentication. They will have to use these on an electronic Point of Sale (ePoS) device installed at the shops. Therefore, the ration card issued in the home state can be used in any other state without the need for a No-Objection Certificate.((One Nation One Ration Card Scheme Now Enabled in 20 States/UTs, DD NEWS, (August 13, 2020), http://ddnews.gov.in/national/one-nation-one-ration-card-scheme-now-enabled-20-statesuts.))
