Why the delay in Telangana ration cards?

Currently, there are a total of 6,39,451 ration cards in the nine circles of Hyderabad city. Recently, about 4 lakh people have applied for new ration cards. However, officials said that many people are applying 2 or 3 times. They revealed that they are still applying through the Baldia, Collectorate Prajavani, and this service. Officials revealed that there are currently not enough staff in the CRO area to examine the applications in lakhs. That is why they have written letters to the Revenue and Baldia asking for additional staff.

Officials say that staff from other departments are likely to arrive on deputation at the end of this month. Once they arrive, verification of ration cards and house-to-house inspections will begin from the first week of June. They said that the issuance of new cards will start after the identification of eligible persons . Until the arrival of additional staff, the officials revealed that the program of adding new members, removing deceased and ineligible members is being carried out at the current pace. On the other hand, there is no deadline for applying for ration cards. Officials revealed that this will continue as a continuous process.
