Sri Vijaya Puram: In view of the ongoing migration from the existing ePDS to the upgraded SMART PDS system, all Ration Card-related services will remain temporarily suspended until April 20, 2025. Authorities have informed the public to expect unavailability of these services during the migration period, which is being undertaken to streamline and modernize ration distribution.
