Court refuses plea seeking 'One Nation One Ration' card scheme

The petition aimed to ensure food distribution for migrant laborers across state borders, particularly within Maharashtra.

Filed by the Movement for Peace and Justice for Welfare (MPJ) through Advocate Hamza Lakdawala, the plea sought a directive for the Maharashtra government and the Centre to comply with a 2020 Supreme Court order. This order instructed authorities to reassess the number of individuals eligible under both rural and urban sectors while implementing the Food Security Act.
