Apply for ration card

Brief Information: Ration card is an approved document issued by the government authorities for availing benefits under PDS. Before the implementation of NFSA'2013 in the state, there were three types of ration cards in Assam, which were called Family Identity Cards (FICs). These three types were for ration cards

I) APL (Above Poverty Line)

II) BPL (Below Poverty Line)

III) AAY(Antoday Anna Yojana) beneficiaries under PDS/TPDS.

There was also another type of ration card issued by the state government called the MMASY ( Mukhya Mantri Anna Suraksha Yojana) Card.

With the implementation of NFSA’13 in the State, the State Government abolished all earlier ration cards and issued only two types of ration cards viz.

1) Antyodaya Anna Yojana (AAY) Ration Card
