Why is eKYC Mandatory?

In past months there have been many fraud case reports that indicate ration item scams. For example, a cardholder has passed away, but his or her family members are still using the card to get free ration items. In some cases a person has been caught with multiple cards, to get more free items for free. Because of all these unethical activities government and food security departments have decided to take strict measures to stop all this.
