In a major boost to the national food security government, launched the One Nation-One Ration Card scheme on a pilot basis in Telangana, Andhra Pradesh, Maharastra and Gujarat from 01 August 2019.

Families who have food security cards can buy subsidised rice and wheat from any ration shop in these states. Their ration cards should be linked with Aadhar Number to avail this service. 

The white Ration Cardholders in Telangana have been getting the portability facility, enabling them to buy their subsidised rice and other food grains from any Fair Price Shop in the state. 

The same facility can be utilised anywhere in Andhra Pradesh now through PoS machines under the One Nation One Ration Card scheme which has come into force in the two states. 

According to sources, the Centre is intended to extend the programme to all states by August next year so that the portability of the food security card implemented.
