NAMES NOT IN THE LIST
DESPITE the state government's recent move to issue new ration cards, the absence of a clear window and a timeframe for submitting fresh applications has left many people high and dry.
The process, which is crucial for poor people relying on subsidised food and essential supplies, lacks clarity and transparency for issuance of new food security cards (ration cards).
According to sources, the government has reportedly compiled a list of potential beneficiaries based on the data collected from Samagra Intinti Kutumba Survey (comprehensive social-economic educational employment political, and caste survey), which is popularly known as Kulaganana (caste survey).
