New Delhi: Union Food Minister Piyush Goyal on Friday urged the Delhi government to not create obstacles for poor migrants in availing PDS grains and implement the 'One Nation One Ration Card (ONORC)' scheme. Setting up of e-PoS (electronic point of sale) devices in the Public Distribution System (PDS) is necessary for the implementation of ONORC i.e. ration card portability service.
But, the Delhi government in April 2018 had temporarily suspended the distribution of ration through the e-PoS system. Goyal, who has written several letters in the past few months to the Delhi government on the resumption of e-PoS devices at the earliest, tweeted: "Request Delhi Govt also to stop creating obstacles for poor migrants and implement One Nation One Ration Card Scheme."
