Mustering camp called off; supply resumes in ration outlets

Food and Civil Supplies Minister G.R. Anil said the decision was taken to provide both the National Informatics Centre and the State IT Mission further time to resolve the technical glitches that impeded the exercise a day ago.

He also sought to allay concerns among beneficiaries regarding the lack of time left to update their e-KYC details. The Centre had fixed the month as the deadline to ensure normal allocation of essential commodities from April onwards.
