**ramanathan_gr** · 05-16-2008, 04:44 PM

Hi Friends

For the last 15 years I was in New Delhi with my family and came and settled at Chennai Last year. In Delhi we have surrendered the Ration card and as soon as we came to Chennai, we have applied for new ration card submitting the surrender letter with a copy of ration card to Tambaram Ration office.(as we are living in Puzhuthiwakkam, Chennai-91, it falls of Tambaram Taluk, Kanchipuram Dist.)

Whenever we go to Ration office, the reply is same - 'you will get it as we hv recommended your case'

Now it is more than one year, we really don't know the staus of same and when we will get it.

Is anybody help me how to get the present status of abv ration card?

Regards

Dear Sharmaji

Thank u very much for your suggestion and it really worked out. I hv sent only one mail just copy and paste of your words (along with acknowledment receipt number which was given by Tambaram Zonal Office at the time of applying for Ration Card) to Commissioner of Civil Supplies & Customer Protection on 28.05.08.

I hv recd a copy of msg fm him (dated 03.06.08) which is addressed to PSS to CCSS to take immediate action within 24 hours with a copy to petioner.

on 4.6.08, I hv recd a reply fm PS to CCSS that our card is ready and asked us to collect it fm Tambaram Zonal Office and if we have faced any problem ask us to contact him over telephone (giving the tel. no.)

on 5.6.08 My wife went and collected the Ration Card fm Tambaram Office.

Thank you verymuch for your valuable suggestion to get the ration card.

Keep it up. My hearty congratulations to RTI INDIA.org for writing my problems and get a good suggestion fm you.

Best Regards
