In Haryana, the consumers would get smart cards to replace ration cards under the Public Distribution System. While stating this on Wednesday, Financial Commissioner and Principal Secretary, Food and Supplies, Navraj Sandhu said that initially, a pilot project for this facility would be launched in four blocks of Ambala, Sonepat, Sirsa and Gharaunda of Karnal district. She said that to get ration, the consumer would insert the smart card in a machine at the ration depot which would let the consumer know his allocation quantity of ration and its price. On the basis of this, the depot holder would give ration. Similarly, the depot holder would have to follow a similar process to get his stock. She said that the smart card would be linked with unique identification card. Mrs Sandhu said that this new system is being introduced for ensuring transparency in the Public Distribution System.
