Udupi, Mar 21: Hassles of waiting in serpentine queue to get ration cards is a thing of the past. Your new ration card is just a message away because as per the new process launched by the Government, the submission of applications for obtaining new ration cards can be done through mobile phones.

As per the directive issued by the Commissioner of the State Department of Food, Civil Supplies and Consumer Affairs, those residing in cities and towns in Karnataka, wishing to apply for ration cards can type a text message 'RCNEW' along with the applicant's full name and send it to 9212357123.

Applicants from rural areas can submit applications at their respective Gram Panchayat after April 1. However, while doing so a new applicant from rural area has to be accompanied by a permanent ration card holder (with his photo on the ration card) as an introducer while applying for the ration card.

Mangaluru, Dec 15: Air India Express has announced that it will resume direct flight services between Mangaluru and Muscat from March 2026, restoring an important international air link for passengers from the coastal region.

Airport authorities said the service will operate twice a week—on Sundays and Tuesdays—from March 1. The initial flights are scheduled on March 3, 8 and 10, followed by March 15 and 17, with the same operating pattern to continue thereafter. The flight duration is approximately three hours and 25 minutes.

The Mangaluru–Muscat route was earlier operated under the 2025 summer schedule, with services beginning on July 14. At that time, Air India Express had operated four flights a week before suspending the service.

Officials said the summer schedule will come into effect from March 29, after which changes in flight timings and departure schedules from Mangaluru are expected. Passengers have been advised to check the latest schedules while planning their travel.

The resumption of direct flights to Muscat is expected to significantly benefit expatriates, business travellers and others, further strengthening Mangaluru’s air connectivity with the Gulf region.
