When BJP was in power did you stop carrying those things? Ration cards were not compulsory for many things before BJP came to power. After the end of 90s when the religious party was in power, everywhere they started asking for Ration cards as proof, and there was a rush to get them. I remember standing in line in Mumbai for days to get the Card, everyone in line bitching about the government (Shivsena/ BJP). Cards were also freely issued to Bangladeshis for bribes during those days. To top it, it was rumored that a list of people who declare large incomes in the Card application used to go to the SS goons secretly who will then try to extort money from those applicants. That is the life under the religious parties for you.
In the current Indian parliament, of the 543 elected representatives of the lower house, 158 (29 percent) are currently charged with a criminal offence. More shockingly still, seventy four (14 percent) are charged with crimes in the most serious category of offence, comprised of murder, rape, extortion, banditry and theft. While it is problematic to draw a simple relationship between criminal charges and actual guilt, it is apparent that politicians fall foul of the law far more frequently than almost any other section of Indian society, posing the pertinent question of why particular types of people are so often attracted to a political career. Alternatively, though less plausibly, one could ask why it is that politicians are so disproportionately targeted for spurious criminal investigations.
Do such people not realize that they will be raised up on a Terrible Day, the Day mankind will stand before the Lord of all the worlds? (Surat al-Mutaffifin, 83:1-6)
