Hello again, Thanks Ashley for the change in subject title ......For easy reference, I have reproduced below, (at the end end of Peter's mail), the relevant para of my previous mail on this topic. "regarding the voting card - frequent revisions are being done often." You can say/type that again, Ashley! - quite a few "revisions" or so it seems ... I hurried to get the Adhaar Card processed in January this year to facilitate my gas cylinders quota, but that is of no consequence now as I understand. I also understand that the Adhaar Card might yet be made obsolete in view of some other ID Card (in the pipeline?) phew! What a waste of time, energy & money! "and there are no deletions / revisions that happen unless they have been told." Well Ashley, perhaps this is the case now. 30 years ago .........????? Peter, our grouch seems to be the same. I have not bothered to check whether my name is still on/in the voting list as I have voted just once .... on turning 21...huh! Presumably, the Adhaar Card will get me onto this particular list in the future. & if, as you say, Ashley, it is that easy to get the ration card "restored", then I will look into it the next time I am in Goa, OR on a second thought, perhaps when I settle down for good in Goa in the near future.... after all, why waste time, energy & money again???!!! So virtually I have become a non-Goan good one Peter, I like!...join the club so to say... and non-Goans are freely being issued ration cards and their names appear on the voting list in Goa. Aha! Have a nice day!......hope all had a good weekend!

Ration Card is issued to all who make their "home" in Goa. Stranger still, till a few years ago, without a ration card I could not do many things like booking a vehicle etc. Was this fair, that I was left without my own means of transport during the weeks or months I spent in Goa? Luckily the PAN Card & Adhaar Card takes care of this now. Perhaps due to such things, our grouch about Goans & non-Goans? It is felt that "they" have the better bet! -- -- Saligao-Net is at http://groups.google.com/group/saligao-net To post to this group, send email to saligao-net@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe email saligao-net-unsubscr...@googlegroups.com --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Saligao-Net" group.
