ABSTRACT:–
A ration card is essential for every household as it serves various purposes. However, the traditional Ration Distribution System is prone to corruption, resulting in the wastage of a significant amount of government money. The primary objective of the proposed system is to automate the ration shop and provide transparency in the distribution process.
Currently, anyone with a ration card can purchase various materials such as sugar, rice, kerosene, etc., from the ration shop. Nevertheless, this system has some drawbacks, such as incorrect weight measurement due to human errors and the ration shop owner's improper use of consumer materials without the knowledge of ration cardholders the government office and the customer through GSM technology.
The paper proposes an Automatic Ration Materials Distribution system based on RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) and GSM (Global System for Mobile) technology, preferably using a ration card. The system requires the customer to scan their RFID tag on the reader. The microcontroller then verifies the customer's identity number and all the details in the smart card. After successful verification, the customer must enter the type and quantity of material they wish to receive using the keypad. Once the customer receives the materials, the microcontroller sends the information to the government office and the customer through GSM technology.
The proposed system aims to avoid corruption and provide better management of the public distribution system. By using RFID and GSM technology, the distribution process will become more efficient, accurate, and transparent, reducing the risk of fraud and ensuring that the materials reach the intended beneficiaries.
