An e-KYC camp for ration card applicants will be held on Saturday, 17 October 2026, at all Public Distribution System (PDS) shops in Nathnagar block, Bhagalpur. The camp will run from 8 am to 4 pm for those whose offline applications for new cards or name additions are pending due to incomplete e-KYC. Block Supply Officer Abhijit Kumar held a meeting with Vikas Mitras at Trisam Bhawan to coordinate the effort. Vikas Mitras have been tasked with identifying beneficiaries whose e-KYC is pending and helping them attend the camp. Applications will be entered and processed only after e-KYC is completed.

## Indian Opinion Analysis

Residents who submitted offline ration card applications but missed the e-KYC step now have a single-day window to complete it without visiting government offices. The camp puts the onus on Vikas Mitras and PDS dealers to reach pending applicants, reflecting an administrative push to clear the backlog. The camp on 17 October is the deadline for these applicants to get their e-KYC done before their files can move forward.
