For ‘one nation, one ration card’ to work, India has to fix a bunch of issues on war footing

Many poor beneficiaries registered under the Public Distribution System (PDS) who are pinning their hopes on free and subsidised ration supplies for their survival during the COVID-19 lockdown are disappointed to get wheat at a time even flour mills are shut. In most parts of the country, local flour millers and chakki shops are not allowed to operate, while some are not willing to function due to fear of action by the police which is enforcing strictly the lockdown rules to stop the spread of the disease as the confirmed cases in the country rise to 1,071. "What do I do with wheat? Nearby chakkis (flour mills) are shut. Where do I convert wheat into flour? What is the point of buying wheat when we cannot consume?" Mustafa (25), a factory worker, told after getting the ration supply from a fair price shop at Sarai Kale Khan in the national capital. Mustafa received 6 kg wheat and 1.5 kg rice per person for free on Monday and did not get his monthly quota of foodgrains at a subsidised rate in the absence of stock at the depot. Under the PDS, the government is giving monthly 5 kg foodgrains at a subsidised rate of Rs 2 kg for wheat and Rs 3 kg for rice. To ensure enough food to the poor during the lockdown, the government last week decided to distribute for free 5 kg of rice or wheat per person and 1 kg pulse per household for the next three months under the Pradhan Mantri Garib Kalyan Yojana (PMGKY). Like Mustafa, many ration card holders -- some were working in nearby factories, some as servants, security guards and rickshaw pullers before the lockdown announced on March 24 -- who got wheat from the ration shop were disappointed. This was the situation reported in wheat-consuming states of North India even though the central government has given permission to states and union territories to supply 'wheat flour' if they wish at their expense. "Under the PDS, we basically deliver wheat. It is logistically not possible to intervene at a local level by the Government of India. However, necessary advisory will be issued to the state governments to look into the matter," Food Secretary Ravi Kant said. Except for Punjab, Rajasthan and Haryana, most states distribute a mix of rice and wheat through PDS. However under the PMGKY, mostly rice will be distributed for free, he said. "It is difficult suddenly to convert wheat into atta (wheat flour) and distribute via PDS. If at all to be done and can be managed, it has to be done at the state level," Kant said. However, some states like Telangana have taken measures to distribute wheat flour along with rice and some cash to ration card holders who have become jobless owing to the lockdown. Uttar Pradesh Roller Flour Millers Association President Pramod Kumar Vaish said, "The Centre is distributing wheat at a cheaper rate of Rs 2 per kg, while the cost of converting it into flour and packaging is over Rs 3 per kg." The Association has sent a proposal to the Uttar Pradesh government that they are ready to provide their service for PDS purpose. "But, the state administration has not shown interest due to the financial implications it would have on the state exchequer in the absence of a clear central policy," he said. Vaish said, "There is a problem in distributing wheat in the current situation. How can poor go and get it grinded when chakkis are not opened?" The Association cannot intervene as it has big flour millers as its members and not small chakkis at local level, he added. The only way out now is to allow one or two local chakkis in each locality to operate during the lockdown or install at least one portable chakki near ration depot for converting wheat into flour. It may be noted that there are over 81 crore poor people registered under the PDS, which comprise two-thirds of the country's population.

PDS beneficiaries are disappointed as wheat is of no use when flour mills are shut due to lockdown

By Laxmi Devi (Pic: 30-03-2020_000187B) New Delhi, Mar 30 () Many poor beneficiaries registered under the Public Distribution System (PDS) who are pinning their hopes on free and subsidised ration supplies for their survival during the COVID-19 lockdown are disappointed to get wheat at a time even flour mills are shut.

PDS beneficiaries woes: Free wheat of no use when flour mills shut due to lockdown

New Delhi, Feb 28 () Four more states, including Uttar Pradesh and Bihar, will roll out the ration card portability by next month, Food and Consumer Affairs Minister Ram Vilas Paswan said on Friday. The government aims to implement ration card portability in the entire country from June 1 under the initiative called 'One Nation, One Ration Card'. Under the initiative, eligible beneficiaries would be able to avail their entitled foodgrains under the National Food Security Act (NFSA from any Fair Price Shop in the country using the same ration card. "Already, 12 states have implemented the ration card portability. Four more states such as Uttar Pradesh and Bihar will do by March and the rest other states by June 1," Paswan said at an agri-summit organised by BusinessLine newspaper here. The portability of ration card will end corruption in the Public Distribution System (PDS) and help beneficiaries avail their entitlement anywhere in the country, he said. Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, Gujarat, Maharasthra, Haryana, Rajasthan, Karnataka, Kerala, Madhya Pradesh, Goa, Jharkhand and Tripura are 12 states where ration card portability has been implemented, he added. The minister also said that no new ration card will be required under the 'One Nation, One Ration Card' initiative. The minister said that direct benefit transfer of PDS foodgrains being implemented in Chandigarh, Puducherry and Dadra and Nagar Haveli on a pilot basis has not been successful because of lack of bank facilities and power shortage. In many states, door-step delivery of foodgrains has been initiated. The PDS has been streamlined as Aadhar details have been seeded with 90 per cent of ration cards in the country and point of sale machines have been installed in 96 per cent of the fair price shops, he added. Under the NFSA, about 75 crore beneficiaries have been covered so far against the target of 81.35 crore, as per official data. On price rise in essential items like onion, the minister said unfortunately consumers in the country cry when prices of commodities produced by farmers go up and don't bother when prices of products like shoe or watch rises. "This kind of approach is not good. But this is the reality," he said, emphasising the need to change this situation. LUX MRMR

4 more states to implement ration card portability by March:Paswan

Agartala, The Tripura government has cancelled 62,340 fake ration cards identified after computerisation of the PDS system, officials said here on Tuesday. Food, <keyword id="9532954" type="COMPANY" weightage="20" keywordseo="civil-supplies-and-consumer-affairs-department">Civil Supplies and Consumer Affairs Department</keyword> Director Tapan Kumar Das said that after the cancellation, the number of ration cards has come down to around nine lakh that benefit 36 lakh people in the state. "After the computerisation of the Public Distribution System (PDS) in Tripura, 62,340 fake ration cards involving 2,80,776 beneficiaries were identified," Das told <keyword id="105681" type="COMPANY" weightage="20" keywordseo="IANS">IANS</keyword>. He said that PDS ration and other items are giving to beneficiaries after biometric authentication to prevent pilferage and frauds. Tripura Food, Civil Supplies and Consumer Affairs Minister Monoj Kanti Deb said that after the BJP-led government came to power in the state in March 2018, these fake ration cards had been cancelled. "These forged ration cards were issued during the previous (Left Front) government," Deb said at an official event. The Minister claimed that of the 2.81 lakh persons found benefiting from fake ration cards, a large number may be Bangladeshi nationals. "Despite a thorough inquiry, there was no trace of a majority of these 2.81 lakh people against whom PDS commodities were issued for many years." Das said that with 100 per cent Aadhaar number seeding, end-to-end computerisation of PDS was completed in Tripura in 2018 for transparency and quick services, and inter-state portability of ration cards system introduced last year. "Tripura is the first state in northeast India to complete the digitalisation of the entire PDS. The central government has appreciated Tripura government's work in digitalisation," Das said. The PDS computerisation is a joint initiative of the Ministry of Consumer Affairs, Food and Public Distribution and <keyword id="9532955" type="COMPANY" weightage="20" keywordseo="the-national-informatics-centre">the National Informatics Centre</keyword> and is being introduced in all states and union territories across the country.

Through this card, migrant workers can access any Public Distribution Shop in any state, any country. This will enable national portability of ration card. One of the biggest crises of India in the past one month has been the migrant workers crisis. Finding themselves suddenly out of jobs, these workers with barely any access to food have been travelling by foot to leave their state of work to go home. Now, the government’s <keyword id="7806209" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="one-nation-one-ration-card">One Nation One Ration card</keyword> hopes to help migrant workers from different states across the country. Intra-state portability has been introduced in over 20 states. “This will help 67 crore beneficiaries in 23 states covering 83% of the PDS population by August 2020,” said Sitharaman. Promising 100% national portability by March 2021, Sitharaman said that this initiative is a part of the PM’s technology driven reforms. All the states will complete fair price shops automation by March 2021. The FM also promised free food grain supply to migrants for two months. “About 8 crore migrants will benefit from this and ₹3500 crore will be spent on this intervention over 2 months,” she said. Migrants who don’t have either the National Food Security Act card or any state card will get 5KG of grains per person and 1KG gram per family per month for two months. The FM confirmed that people will be able to get food through the One Nation One Ration card, with their Aadhar card. An earlier release from the government had said, "This system enables the migratory ration card holders/beneficiaries to lift their entitled foodgrains from any Fair Price Shop (FPS) of their choice in the country by using their existing/same ration card issued in their home State/UT after biometric/Aadhaar authentication on electronic Point of Sale (ePoS) devices installed at the FPSs.

One nation, one ration card – Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman promises subsidised food for migrant workers anywhere in the country

(Eds: Adding details) New Delhi, May 15 () The World Bank on Friday approved a USD 1 billion loan to support India's efforts for providing social assistance to the poor and vulnerable households, severely impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. The "Accelerating India's COVID-19 Social Protection Response Program" will support the government's efforts towards a more consolidated delivery platform – accessible to both rural and urban populations across state boundaries. This takes the total commitment from the World Bank towards emergency COVID-19 response in India to USD 2 billion. A USD 1 billion support was announced last month towards immediate support to India's health sector. The multilateral lending agency is also in discussions with the government to provide assistance to the country's micro, small and medium enterprises, said World Bank Country Director in India Junaid Ahmad in a webinar with media. The response to the COVID-19 pandemic around the world has required governments to introduce social distancing and lockdowns in unprecedented ways, he said. These measures, intended to slowdown the spread of the virus have, however, impacted economies and jobs – especially in the informal sector. India with the world's largest lockdown has not been an exception to this trend. Of the USD 1 billion commitment, USD 550 million will be financed by a credit from the International Development Association (IDA) – the World Bank's concessionary lending arm and USD 200 million will be a loan from the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (IBRD), with a final maturity of 18.5 years including a grace period of five years. The remaining USD 250 million will be made available after June 30, 2020. The program will be implemented by the Union Ministry of Finance. In a release, the World Bank said the new support will be funded in two phases – an immediate allocation of USD 750 million for fiscal year 2020 (fiscal year starting July 1, 2020) and a USD 250 million second tranche that will be made available for fiscal year 2021. Ahmad further said the COVID-19 pandemic has also put the spotlight on some of the gaps in the existing social protection systems. This platform draws on the country's existing architecture of safety nets – the PDS, the digital and banking infrastructure, and Aadhaar – while positioning the overall social protection system for the needs of a 21st century India. "What COVID-19 had done is that it has actually gotten the government to create linkages between the system and begin to move the social protection system of India, what I think will be the 21st century system. "It is in this context we have put in USD 1 billion following USD 1 billion in health and in anticipation of a thrid programme which will be around the small and small enterprises...," he said. Ahmad futher said the World Bank was in the process of discussing a MSMEs programme with the government. He said liquidity has come into the market through the monetary and fiscal policies and "the challenge now is to take that liquidity and bring it into the hands of the MSMEs... We will be coming in to support that. Where exactly and how much is something that we are in discussion with the government". Replying to a query on the Rs 20-lakh-crore package announced by the government, Ahmad said it is a "very important statment by the government". "In terms of emerging economies, India is largest in terms of fiscal and monetary response... Absolutely important that the government made a statement in terms of direction and the fact that it is a big programme," he added. On the latest USD 1 billion support, the World Bank said the first phase of the operation will be implemented countrywide through the Pradhan Mantri Garib Kalyan Yojana (PMGKY). It will immediately help scale-up cash transfers and food benefits, using a core set of pre-existing national platforms and programs such as the Public Distribution System (PDS) and Direct Benefit Transfers (DBT); provide robust social protection for essential workers involved in COVID-19 relief efforts; and benefit vulnerable groups, particularly migrants and informal workers. In the second phase, the program will deepen the social protection package, whereby additional cash and in-kind benefits based on local needs will be extended through state governments and portable social protection delivery systems, it added. World Bank further said social protection is a critical investment since half of India's population earns less than USD 3 a day and are precariously close to the poverty line. Over 90 per cent of India's workforce is employed in the informal sector, without access to significant savings or workplace based social protection benefits such as paid sick leave or social insurance. As per the relase, over 9 million migrants, who cross state borders to work each year, are also at greater risk as social assistance programs in India largely provide benefits to residents within states, without adequate portability of benefits across state boundaries. Importantly, in an urbanizing India cities and towns will need targeted support as India's largest social protection programs are focused on rural populations. NKD DRRDRR

However, while the COVID-19 crisis has delayed the process but also made it inevitable. On May 13, Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman said that the families will be allowed to procure pulses and food grains even if members are located in different states. This was announced as a relief measure for millions of India’s migrant workers. Presently, <a href="https://indianexpress.com/article/explained/one-nation-one-ration-card-system-explained-6410179/">20 states in India</a> have adopted this scheme and have implemented ration card portability in their jurisdictions. As per the latest statement issued by the government to the press, the scheme will be further extended to the remaining states by March 2021. As per the official data available, <a href="https://indianexpress.com/article/explained/one-nation-one-ration-card-system-explained-6410179/">around 81 crore beneficiaries</a> are covered under the National Food Security Act (NFSA) in all the states and Union Territories (UT). What will change with the launch of the scheme? Presently, around 23 crore ration cards have been issued to Indian families covering about 80 crore beneficiaries. As per the existing norms, every ration card is linked to a particular FPS in the locality where the family lives. Hence the given family can buy their supply of food grains only from the designated FPS. ‘One nation one ration card’ system will change this and when it becomes operational throughout the country, the beneficiaries will be able to buy food grains at subsidised prices from any FPS across the country. The beneficiary verification process The new system will work with help from technology. The beneficiaries will be verified through biometric authentication i.e. Aadhaar, and electronic point of sale (ePOS) devices will be installed at the outlets. How will the ration card portability system work? The technological platform required for the ‘one nation one ration card’ scheme will be provided by the Integrated Management of Public Distribution System (IM-PDS) portal (<a href="http://www.impds.nic.in/">http://www.impds.nic.in/</a>). This portal will make it possible for the migrant workers to purchase food grains from any FPS located in any state of the country. The other portal that will host the data regarding the food grains distribution through ePOS within a state is annavitran.nic.in. Once the ‘one nation one ration card’ system takes effect in a given state, the beneficiary family can purchase food grains from different locations. For example, a migrant worker staying in a different state can buy his or her share of the subsidized food grains from any FPS in the state where they work while the remaining family members will be able to buy their quota of the supplies back at home.

The move would allow these individuals to digitally receive government welfare subsidies and other payments in a hassle-free manner directly into their bank accounts. 
 
If the person moves to another part of India, they can access these subsidies as the facility is portable across any bank in the country. Till date, 333 banks are live on this platform. 
 
In order to link Aadhaar number to the bank account, one needs to provide a copy of their Aadhaar letter or their e-Aadhaar to the bank branch in which he/she holds the account. Once the account is seeded, it can be used by central government departments to transfer subsidies directly into this bank account. 
 
And just by dialling *99*99# on their mobile phones, residents can check status of the Aadhaar-Bank account linkage. To avail this facility, which is provided by National Payments Corporation of India (NPCI), you need to pay Rs 1.50 per enquiry. 
 
The Aadhaar identity platform is the largest biometric database in the world and serves users ranging from LPG consumers, MNREGA workers, PDS, remittance and scholarship beneficiaries, etc. – all using their Aadhaar number to avail benefits. 
 
Till December 9, 2014, nearly eight crore transactions have been carried out through the Aadhaar Payment Bridge for various welfare programs of the BJP government, which amounted to Rs 5,151.51crore. 
 
On Dec 12, 2014, issuance of Aadhaars crossed the Rs 72 crore-mark across the country.
