No sir. That is the age-old system here which has not undergone any change at all. Otherwise or maybe because of that the number of bogus ration cards in WB is probably the highest for any state in India becoz of a large number of illegal Bangladeshi immigrants especially in the border districts and Kolkata.
One of the reason for non-acceptance of Ration Card as ID Proof may be family photograph on the ration card and not the individual photograph.
As Rihand sir told, Ration card accepted in some parts of country. I have seen in some AP trains. But as it has some issues in other states...better to avoid for long distance trains.
Sir,
Yes: (1) All the R Cs in India do not have Photos. (2) What do have, have as a family photo (I do not know the proportion) mostly.
And hence, these have not yet been prescribed as an acceptable ID by the IR which is maintaining the rules for the Nation as a whole.

This is good question/discussion. I added in FAQ database.
Thank you.
