Migrants to benefit from One Nation One Ration scheme –
Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman during the Union Budget 2021 announced that migrants in India will benefit under the One Nation One Ration scheme. Sitharaman said that migrants can purchase ration from anywhere in the country by using their ration card.
Benefits of the One Nation One Ration Card
ONORC has been in the works since April 2018. The conversion of the regular ration card to the One Nation One Ration Card is expected for all beneficiaries in all states and Union Territories by 2021.
The major benefit of the One Nation One Ration Card is that the people who are eligible to receive subsidised food grain can do so from any FPS shop in any city. With many of the people migrating to different cities and the previous inability to purchase food grain in any other city, the One Ration card can help the livelihood of migrant workers all over the country.
