Biometric e-KYC Verification & Inactive Card Fix

The Rajasthan Food Department mandates 100% Aadhaar and Jan Aadhaar biometric e-KYC authentication at Fair Price Shops (FPS) to ensure fair food grain distribution via ePoS machines.

🔍
1. How to Complete Mandatory e-KYC
Visit your local Fair Price Shop (уचित मूल्य दुकान / राशन डीलर) with your Aadhaar card and Jan Aadhaar card. Authenticate your fingerprint on the POS machine scanner to verify your family e-KYC status.
🛠️
2. Reactivating Blocked / Inactive Cards
If your card status displays “Blocked” or “Non-NFSA”, submit your Jan Aadhaar and Income Certificate to your local DSO Office or Tehsil Supply Inspector for instant status review.
Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT) & Bank Mapping: If your cash subsidy or cash-in-lieu of food grains fails to deposit into your bank account, verify that your account is mapped with NPCI. Read our detailed guide on fixing NPCI mapping and ABPS Aadhaar bank link issues to resolve payment rejections.
