The AP Ration Card eKYC 2025 scheme has been launched by the state government of Andhra Pradesh. The state government of Andhra Pradesh has mandated that all residents of the state complete the AP ration card eKYC. The citizens will not obtain necessary supplies from PDS if they have an AP ration card but have not finished KYC. The e-KYC process is simple for Andhra Pradesh state residents to complete by going to the official website and providing their basic information. A deadline for completing ration card e-KYC has been set by the Union Government to guarantee that only qualified recipients obtain ration cards.

Objective of AP Ration Card eKYC

The primary goal of the ration card eKYC is to find out whether Andhra Pradesh state residents own a ration card and are consistently getting rations from the Public Distribution system. The Andhra Pradesh State government will rid the ration card of those who don’t need it and only give benefits to those who are truly in need by making e-KYC mandatory. The biometric information of the ration card holders can be entered to complete the e-KYC. The state of Andhra Pradesh will be able to estimate the number of citizens who would get rations under the ration card through the e-KYC procedure.
