Here are some excerpts from the Indian Express about the proposed scheme and pilot project.
From the IndianExpress:
National Identity Number to each citizen, and also features finger biometrics and a photograph of the individual. In other words, this is the definitive dossier on that particular citizen.
The objectives of the scheme are said to be enhancing internal security, and addressing illegal migration. The Citizenship Act, 1955, was amended and notified in 2003 to include a section on registration of citizens and issuing of identity cards.
The cards also involve the creation of a National Register of Indian Citizens, which will incorporate all the details and updates whenever crucial variables changed, eg when people got married, migrated or changed their name.
The actual implementation seems like it has been quite complex.
This was also at the bottom of the article
In Spain, Italy and Germany, it is compulsory for citizens over 16 years to carry I-cards.
In France, I-cards are voluntary.
In the UK, from 2010, all those over the age of 16 applying for a passport will have to have an I-card. Eye, facial scans and fingerprints will be added onto a National Register from 2008.
At present, the Republic of Ireland, Denmark, Latvia and Lithuania are the only EU countries to have no I-card schemes.
ID-Entity Bogey:
have encountered serious procedural and implementation problems, such as at Murshidabad, which failed to verify some 90 per cent of the population. Among them are some Iranian families living in Murshidabad for 70 years. The Indian authorities think they are Iranians and they should go back to Iran and the Iranian government believes them to be Indian.
For a nation that boasts of a population of more than a billion, not all them literate, not all of them possessing primary documents, and not all them settled in one location for generations, it doesn’t require a genius to guess that the survey, if it goes for a national roll-out, will encounter many Murshidabads.
Govt. expences in various ID card to make it, but there is a no option to control on terrarisom.
There is only one option to save our country from teriist is that to taken action of on the sport given death – this type criminal person on publice area. No court system.
If we want to make our country to Ram-Rajya- – to finished totally any kind of crime, strickly,quickly and without paper work for disition.
