Features of AePDS
Aadhaar enabled Public Distribution System (AePDS) is a system that uses Aadhaar authentication to provide food grains and other essential commodities to eligible beneficiaries under the Public Distribution System (PDS). AePDS has several features that make it more efficient and effective than the traditional PDS system.
These features include:
** Biometric authentication: Aadhaar authentication ensures that only eligible beneficiaries receive food grains and other essential commodities. This helps to prevent leakages and pilferage.
** Online monitoring: AePDS is an online system, which makes it easier for the government to monitor the distribution of food grains and other essential commodities. This helps to ensure that the system is running smoothly and that beneficiaries are receiving their entitlements on time.
** Transparency: AePDS is a transparent system, which means that beneficiaries can track the status of their entitlements online. This helps to build trust between the government and the beneficiaries.
