The Centre on Monday asked State Governments to submit their proposals seeking additional funds for the ration card portability scheme, called ‘One Nation-One Ration Card’ (ONORC), by February 15.

 Under the ONORC plan, beneficiaries can lift their entitled foodgrains from any electronic point of sale device (ePoS)-enabled fair price shops of their choice by using their existing ration cards with biometric authentication.
