Where can we collect the ration card after the process of online application is completed. Will it be sent by post to the residential address?

Your introducer must also carry his or her original ration card and recent electricity bill while accompanying you to the photo biometric-center. Download the self-declaration and sign it Scan the declaration and upload the document online. You will receive a printed acknowledgement of your application from the photo and biometric service centre.

A ration card is considered to be a vital document for Indian citizens. It is often used as an identification proof while applying for several other documents like Domicile Certificate, entry of name in Electoral Rolls, etc. The Karnataka Department of Food, Civil Supplies and Consumer Affairs started the process for registration of ration card through online application from 15th January, 2013 onwards.

I also reside in Bangalore and no one was ready to testify without some good amount in return and he is still searching for a genuine introducer who will help him. The need to find an introducer has forced people to rethink whether they really need to apply for a ration card at all. The food and civil supplies department is also not responding to the queries.

I am a resident in Frazer Town said that he applied for a ration card in January but failed to get an introducer for which he did not get the ration card. The card needs to have information about your family size and members, which is a must especially if you want an LPG connection. The resident lamented that no one was ready to become the introducer unless they are offered money.

A new rule has been introduced with regard to the ration card in Bangalore by the food and civil supplies department. The rule says an applicant has to get an existing ration card holder who will attest the application and introduce the applicant at online application center made.
