Rajouri, July 22: In many parts of Rajouri districts people have been complaining about unnecessary delay in issuing of their Aadhaar cards & e-ration cards and alleged that in the absence of Aadhaar card they are facing difficulties in getting their LPG subsidy. Union Government has provided two options for the LPG subscribers to avail the LPG subsidy.
LPG consumer can receive LPG subsidy in his/her bank account by linking Aadhaar card to bank account number and to the LPG consumer number.
Under second option (if the consumer has no Aadhaar card) the consumer can get subsidy by providing his/her bank account name /number IFSC code to the LPG distributor for capture in LPG database and present LPG consumer information (17 digits) to his/her band authorities.
"While in other parts of the state the government has provided Aadhaar cards and e-ration cards, in Rajouri district many areas still not covered under this scheme and besides LPG subsidy Aadhaar card has been made compulsory for many other benefits" said Naresh Kumar resident of Nowshera.

Shokat Ali and Mohd Sadiq and many other resident of Kotranka and other areas have alleged that the concerned officials have committed many irregularities while preparing the BPL lists.
"Many families which were getting ration under BPL category since a long time have been deleted from the list. Only three families were shown under BPL category. Many names are missing while many rich families have been figured in the list of Below Poverty Line (BPL) beneficiaries" said Shokat Ali.
