Cards that you must have in India

India is a country known for diversity and nowadays better known for keeping different-different cards for different perspective. In India, you will have separate cards for identity, address verification, separate driving license, separate ration card and so on. Slowly things are moving and what I can check from latest trends, India might soon have solution for all these problems. With the advent of centralized cards like Aadhar Card, we can finally hope for some improvement in this area.

Here I am going to discuss some common cards that you are supposed to have every time you leave the home.

Government Cards needed in India

1. Voter ID Card
Whenever you leave your home, please double check to have Voter ID card with you. This card shows your nationality and identity. It can help you in various scenarios where you need to verify your nationality and identity. You can get this card easily during election time. Voter Cards are issued to adults only and you can apply for voter card after 18 years of age.

2. Aadhar Card
Unlike voter card, Aadhar Card is issued to every age group. So it is a must have card for people with age below 18. This card also shows your identity. If everything goes as planned then we can soon have Aadhar Card integrated with every item that you purchase, go through in India. It will help in better tracking of efforts and schemes that Government needs to come up with.

3. Ration Card
I am not saying you to carry your ration card every time you leave your house but you should carry it every time you are visiting some government office with the purpose of applying for another card. In every such case, ration card importance is crucial and you simply can’t get another card allocated without submitting proofs of your ration card. So please do not forget carrying it in such scenarios.

These are some of the useful cards/things that you need to take care in India. Please do let us know if anything else required or you want us to cover more.
