TNPDS Smart Ration Card Status 2022
A
ration card is a document through which citizens can get a ration at a
subsidized price from a fair price shop. The government of Tamil Nadu has
launched a TNPDS smart ration
card for the citizens of Tamil Nadu. Now Citizens are not
required to carry ration cards in physical form as this card will be available
in digital form. Availability of smart ration cards will prevent fraudulent practices and cut down printing
and distribution costs of ration cards. The distribution of ration cards will also become less time-consuming. Other than that
citizens are not required to visit government offices in order to apply for
ration cards as the Government of Tamil Nadu has launched an official portal.
Through this portal, citizens can apply for ration
cards.
- Light Green cards are issued
