The Telangana government is set to introduce a family digital card system for every household in the State, aimed at streamlining access to ration, health, and welfare schemes through a single card. Chief Minister Revanth Reddy held a review meeting with officials from the Health and Civil Services Department on Monday, directing them to study similar initiatives already implemented in Rajasthan, Haryana, and Karnataka and prepare a comprehensive report.
The Chief Minister proposed a pilot project selecting one urban and one rural area in each Assembly constituency to begin the rollout of the family digital cards. These cards will allow beneficiaries to access welfare schemes, ration, and health services across the State. Reddy emphasised that the cards should include a health profile for each family member, which will aid in long-term medical services. The card will also allow for easy updates, such as adding or removing family members.
