A technical glitch stalled the mustering process that was arranged for ration card holders in the State on Friday.
The Food, Civil Supplies, and Consumer Affairs department had suspended ration supply for three days commencing Friday to enable priority ration card holders to update their e-KYC details within the month-end as mandated by the Centre. Special camps have been arranged in libraries, anganwadis, cultural centres and other facilities from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. for the purpose.
However, the snag caused by the server of the State IT Mission resulted in only 1,82,116 card-holders completing the mustering exercise. The technical error reported by several ration outlets prompted the department to confine the process to Antyodaya Anna Yojana (yellow) ration card-holders alone to decongest the server.
