BPL ration card rejection reason

**adicoza** · 09-15-2011, 10:45 PM

Hi,

I am trying to help my cook who is from Orissa and who is struggling to get BPL ration card in his name. It seems every time a officer comes to their place and gives some reason and refuses to give BPL ration card to him. I would like to know how should questions be framed in this case so that he gets to know the exact reason for the rejection of BPL card. Also how the authority takes decision to determine whether a particular family is BPL or not.

I also saw that there exists a E Request which can be used to file an RTI application in Orissa which I am planning to use. I guess Food Supplies and Consumer Welfare is the appropriate PIO in this case.

It seems that say that the roof of the house is not proper sometimes and other times they give similar reasons about the house construction.

I am not aware whether BPL card eligibility is determined by looking at the house you stay in and what parameters are used to decided whether a particular family is eligible for BPL category.
