I am calling from Ottiyampakkam. I dont know how to get new ration card. Can you please tell about it? Reply: How to get ration card? If newly married people are going into a separate family then get the cancellation document of your name from your parents ration card from zonal supply officer. Then apply for new ration card with your zonal supply officer where you are going to reside now. Documents to be attached along with the application are - housing tax document or, electricity bill, address proof, voter ID, with passport size photo. After filing it, concerned officer will directly and inquire about it. Within 1 or 2 months you will be getting new ration card.
