Ration cardholders receiving benefits of free ration can access this service through the Government of India if they fall below the poverty line. People who possess ration cards are the only ones eligible to receive benefits from this program. A fresh policy concerning ration cards stems from the central government. The requirement of e-KYC implementation has become a necessary step for all individuals owning a ration card. The government states that ration cards will be eliminated after the advised e-KYC deadline passes thus denying all related benefits including free ration.
The widespread e-KYC fraud has triggered many individuals to receive unlawful fees from ration card holders seeking e-KYC services. The price to complete e-KYC should be revealed to avoid ration card scam occurrences. The e-KYC of ration card rules created an opportunity for scammers to start their fraudulent activities. A significant number of cases show how cybercriminals contact people to complete e-KYC on the Internet. Failure to comply with the e-KYC process will make their ration card eligible for deletion. Numerous ration card holders experience fraud because they become victims of these cyber criminals through their fraudulent schemes. Ration card holders receive a fraud link through online e-KYC in the name of which scammers can drain the account funds when users click the link.
Ration card dealers and agents take money from beneficiaries who need e-KYC services. Several such incidents have emerged throughout various districts. The agents of ration dealers ask their ration card holders to pay between Rs 10 and Rs 50. The people of many districts have made these complaints as part of their daily routine. All ration card holders need to perform e-KYC testing which the government assigned to ration dealers while this work remains completely cost-free. People do not need to pay any money to obtain their ration cards regardless of their type.
The process of completing e-KYC begins by visiting the nearest government ration shop located in your neighborhood. Identity confirmation for e-KYC happens by using fingerprint or OTP which can be accessed through the POS terminal located at this point. Present the Aadhar card with a ration card and residence certificate and one picture in passport format. Verification of the documents along with the identity enables the completion of e-KYC processes.
