#uid — Public Fediverse posts

Thinking of the scene in the movie Stree where the townsfolk gather for a meeting. A man asks how the malicious spirit knows the names of the persons she strips naked and abducts. Rudra, the librarian, replies, "Sab ka #Aadhaar linked hai uske paas." That joke worked  at so many levels. #UID #Stree

Randomly thinking of the scene in the movie Stree where the townsfolk gather for a meeting. A man asks how the malicious spirit knows the names of the persons she strips naked and abducts. Rudra, the librarian, replies, "Sab ka Aadhaar linked hai uske paas." ("She has obtained everyone's #Aadhaar information", a reference to India's national biometric digital ID.) That joke worked at so many levels.

How An Aadhaar Fraud Forces The Poor Into Paying For Welfare Schemes They Do Not Want

Across India, banks are enrolling account-holders in social security schemes without their assent. Kiosk operators or banks’ business correspondents deceitfully obtain customers’ fingerprints for authentication via the Aadhaar-enabled Payment System, thus imposing the Narendra Modi government’s welfare schemes on the rural poor. Kiosk operators allege that banks pressurise them to enrol customers, by hook or crook, in the government’s life insurance, accident insurance and pension schemes.
