Belagavi: The Karnataka government on Monday issued a stern warning to people possessing Below Poverty Line (BPL) ration cards, despite being ineligible on account of owning either a two-wheeler, TV, fridge or over five acres of land and asked them to surrender their cards before March 31 or face legal action. There are parameters for possessing a BPL card. They should not have more than five acres of land, motorcycle, TV or fridge. Those who don t qualify on these parameters should return the cards or else we will do it, PTI quoted Karnataka Food and Civil Supplies Minister Umesh Katti as saying in a press conference.
