BPL cards are issued by state governments in India under the THE NATIONAL FOOD SECURITY ACT, 2013 (NFSA). Most state governments have digitised the process of applying and amending ration cards and the status of your request can be viewed online depending on which state you are from and what website your state uses for the purposes of ration cards and food security. Additionally, in case you are unable to access the website, we request you to visit your district’s Food Inspector’s office or the District Grievance Redressal Officer.
