For collecting the ration card in Karnataka after doing all the online registration, we got the SMS to collect the card from C.E.T. Cell in Malleshwaram. There we are supposed to collect a token and based on the token we are supposed to get the cards. But as everyone in Bangalore needs to collect from the same place, there were some 100s of people waiting for getting the token and another 100's after getting the token.
Hope the authorities will send the ration card by post like in case of Passport and not make such a wonderful process fail in the last step.
Now they have moved it to a decentralized way of collection by setting up multiple office around. A good step which can scale better than the centralized model.
I collected my Karnataka ration card from the Vijaya Bank Layout, Bangalore police chowk next to Coffee Day opposite the park. One needs to carry the acknowledgement printout (Even the mobile acknowledgement would do but i heard that some people were sent back without the printout in other center), they will print the card after verifying the fingerprint. One need to pay Rs 20/- for a family of 4 and Rs 5/- for any additional member. There is also a counter in front of it in case you need to laminate. It takes not more than 10 mins now if queue is small and all systems work properly ;) We took 45 mins though one of my friend did it in less than 5 mins.
