How to add new member's name to the ration card sitting at home, know the whole process

Ration card is an important document for your identity including government work. Not only does it get food grains at an affordable price, but it also has many other benefits. Therefore, the details of all the family members must be recorded in it. If a new member has joined your household, such as a child in the family or a new daughter-in-law, then you can get their name added to the ration card. For this, some simple procedures have to be followed.

Apart from this, if some other details including your name, address are wrongly written or there are mistakes in the ration card, then they can also be rectified. For this you do not even need to go anywhere. You can do this work online from home.

Food department officer will have to provide information

To add a new member's name to the ration card, you will have to amend your Aadhaar card. For example, if a girl changes her surname after marriage, then she will have to fill her husband's name in place of father in her Aadhaar card and update the new address. After this, the details of the new Aadhaar card will have to be given to the Food Department Officer present in the husband's area. If you want, you can add new member name even after online verification. In this, you have to remove the name from the old ration card and apply for the new ration card. Your number should be registered for all this.

How to add mobile number

If the mobile number is not linked to your ration card, then you have to visit https://nfs.delhi.gov.in/Citizen/UpdateMobileNumber.aspx to register it. Here you have to click on the option of Update Your Registered Mobile Number. After doing this, you will be asked for an Aadhaar number. Here, you have to fill the Aadhaar card number of the head of the household, ie the person in whose name the ration card is made. After this, you have to write the ration card number in the second column. Fill the name of the head of the household in the third column and then fill in your mobile number. Your number will be registered as soon as you do this.
