Initially, the government had set Monday, August 21, as the deadline for individuals to update their Know Your Customer (KYC) details linked to their ration cards. However, in response to the public's request for additional time and to address server-related issues, the government has decided to offer an extended timeline.
Gangwar explained, "In light of the server problem and to ensure that citizens have ample opportunity to make the necessary updates, the deadline will be extended in phases." This approach is aimed at providing citizens with a smoother and more efficient process for updating their information. The updates can be made either online or at a nearby fair price shop, giving citizens the flexibility to choose the mode that suits them best.

Bengaluru: Rural Development and Panchayat Raj Minister Priyank Kharge has alleged involvement of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) in a money transfer network at global level.
Posting his allegation on his personal ‘X’ account on Saturday morning, Kharge said that he was referring to an issue that had not been dealt with decisively by Indian media houses.
“Here is a crucial story that the Indian media will never touch,” the minister has said, and clarified, “This so-called “body of individuals” has built a global network of over 2,500 affiliated organisations. Through these fronts, the RSS collects “guru dakshina” to fuel its divisive agenda. (sic)”
Kharge has further alleged, “The world’s largest NGO is running amok, laundering money and evading accountability.”
The minister added, “Here is a map of their organisational architecture of their “Vichar Parivaar.” https://rssproject.caravanmagazine.in / @thecaravanindia”
