A native of Uttar Pradesh’s Shahjahanpur, Kumar was preparing for a 25-hour bus ride to his hometown with his family of 10 in fear of a lockdown.

Ranchi: AROUND ONE month ago, Anuj Kumar, a brick kiln worker in Gujarat’s Sathara, heard from a local NGO worker that the government had started a new scheme – One Nation, One Ration Card (ONORC).

“The purvata mamlatdar [provisions official] asked me to link my Aadhaar, which I did. Still, nothing came of it. Yeh sab kehne ki baat hai (They just say such things). Us poor, we never get anything,” he said.

A native of Uttar Pradesh’s Shahjahanpur, Kumar was preparing for a 25-hour bus ride to his hometown with his family of 10 in fear of a lockdown.

In Rajasthan’s Bhilwara, a brick kiln trade union wrote to the district logistics officer on March 9, stating that 20,000 migrant workers in about 200 factories were unable to receive rations under the ONORC, despite a month passing since the state government’s announcement that the scheme had been implemented.

Premchand, a worker from Chitrakoot in Uttar Pradesh who had tried to avail the scheme, said he was told that the scheme hadn’t started yet, even after he linked the card to his Aadhaar. “For us, it would make it much easier to receive the ration wherever we are,” he said.
