    Dear Commissioner
    I am an NRI. living in gulf for the past 20 years. Any where we go for any official matters in mangalore they ask us the Ration card. I had applied 2 years back. i have a valid Passport , a valid AAdhar card but NO Voter ID. but for the issuance of ration card they ask my voter ID. what i should do to get a ration card? Or can you make amendments to the rules that a valid Passport is enough for all the official works. This is the fate of all NRIs. when we say no ration card or voter id officials mock at us. please give us an answer
