One Nation One Ration card (ONOR)

One nation one ration card (ONOR) scheme allows portability of food security benefits across country. Calling One Nation One Ration Card “an important citizen-centric reform”, the Supreme Court set a deadline of July 31 for all states to implement.

How One Nation One Ration card augments PDS?

Present scenario	ONOR significance
High leakage & corruption	Biometric authentication and central data avoids leakage and corruption.
Duplication & regional disparities	Central storage and effective monitoring to avoid duplication and regional disparities.
Migrants labours can’t claim benefits	Based on aadhar authentication benefits will be accessible anywhere in India.
Must stick to on Fair price Shop (FPS)	Can choose any FPS in case of misbehavior or dissatisfaction.

Challenges to One Nation One Ration card scheme

Regional difference: Different states have different rates & lethargy from states to incorporate.
Local factors: local factors like internet connection /faulty machine and authentication failures.
Digital illiteracy: Digital illiteracy of beneficiary can lead to inaccessibility/ manipulation by middle men.

Food security is the essence of a welfare state. ONOR is a step in right direction including 37% migrant labors left out earlier. Implementation without issues like data privacy, mobility records of migrants, Dispute resolution at WTO..etc can do wonder.
