        Aadhar is a shitshow, and the government body which controls enrollment routinely files police reports against those who report security breaches, including journalists

        Do you have AADHAR? Sitting in UK, you’ve no right to criticize. You’re a third party. Aadhar is like SSN of US, SIN of Canada .

        UK National Insurance number also doesn't ask for biometrics. It's literally a PAN number for tax and NI purposes. Nor do you have to provide it to private retailers for something like a phone connection

        the article clearly shows that the writer have not visited any sub registrar office where finger prints are being collected, one voter has to wait there for 8+ hours to provide her/his finger prints for aadhar @UIDAI

        "A woman has her retinas scanned, one of several identifying characteristics the system uses to track people. CreditThe New York Times". Credit or discredit ?? Who is tracking people using Aadhaar biometrics ? India need to track such Thug journalists spreading rumors overseas.

        No wonder you're the failing New York times as there was a good effort to create a very clickbaity title while the reporting was actually balanced in the article.
