    This work can be done direct from their Panchayat too.Once when one dies ,should be registerd in Panchayat.To register let them bring their Aadhar card from a family member and immediately Panchayat member should give them either new card without deceased ones name.Or death is not all noted down or noone tells?Second option is every year they do this counting of family members during election ?WHY not during this time ,only living members or present members are counted ,not dead ones?Dont wait villagers to come to your feet.Istead you go to them?

    What about people who have migrated or surrendered their Indian passport? The food and civil supplies department should look into it.

    Corruption is running in the veins of the society... No point blaming the politicians and public employees alone... Honesty and respect for others' privileges start from each household... Unless units of society become non corrupt and develop right integrity we will continue to remain at the bottom of the honesty ladder....
