Certain allowances will always have to be given for those below poverty line who are cut off from civilisation.
So you will issue Aadhars to all of them? You now have violated the fundamental assumption on the basis of which the conjob called Aadhar has been sold to the public - that it will be issued only to those who qualify and deserve it.
No 2 persons will have the same bio-id so it should not matter.
False. This lie was spouted by Mr. NN. There are huge number of false positives in any 1 to many search. These are whittled down by additional parameters until you come to a small number which can be verified manually. There are huge numbers of misses. You will never know about them. In the case of auth, failure to auth - a false negative - means that you are not in the db. So you can obtain a new id. Biometrics is a statistical probability with error rates in excess of .0025% in lab conditions. In reality it is more like 10% in urban middle class situations with regular re-registration and 50% without re registraion over period of 2 years. No study of longer periods. No study of non ideal conditions. No study of large populations.
Even if they give false names, they will have to stick to it for the rest of their official lives.
READ, READ, READ. But not he UIDAI website, or any thing from it's supporters and employees. All you get is lies.
Who qualifies for and deserves Aadhar?
