Aadhaar Card Services – Everything You Need to Know

We all read the news and nowadays there are lots of news coverage given on a topic called “Aadhar card”. If you don’t know what aadhaar card is then don’t worry because aadhar card is nothing but a 12 digit unique identification number issued to every resident of India according to their demographic and biometric information. However many people know this basic information but very few of them know what was the purpose of launching this scheme.

All About Aadhar Card Online/Offline Services

We know that India has got the second largest population in the whole world and for a country which has got that much of population, it is very hard to identify every single person living in a country. So in order to clarify every individual person’s identity government of India announced a single document which will be served as the ‘proof of identity” over all other documents. All the rights of issuing, collecting and modifying the aadhar card are vests with only one authority called UIDAI. (Unique Identification Authority of India)

UIDAI was established on 29 January 2009 under UPA government and this project was led by Nandan Nilekani who was the former CEO of Infosys.

Mr. Nandan Nilekani is the person who decided the logo and the brand name called “AADHAAR” and this project got its approval in 2010 from then prime minister Dr Manmohan Singh and since then it’s mandatory for UIDAI to issue aadhaar card to every person who is a resident of India.

How to Apply for Aadhaar Card?

As I mentioned earlier Aadhaar card serves as identity proof and nowadays many things require you to submit the Aadhaar card number like if you want to open your bank account then it’s necessary that you provide the aadhaar details of yours to the bank. However, if you don’t have aadhaar card then please follow these steps in order to get one.

The one thing which everyone wants to know after applying for the aadhaar card is its status. Since many people enroll at the same for the aadhaar card it normally takes more than 90 days to deliver the aadhaar card at the home address of respective aadhaar holder.

Sibbal and Chidambaram: UPA’s “The Zero Loss” Theory

When Kapil Sibbal published his zero loss theory, I thought this was inspired by Antoine Lavoisier’s discovery of the Law of Conservation of mass. As per Kapil Sibbal’s law the money is constant, be it in Raja’s pocket or withe the Government of India. The total loss is zero, nothing wrong with it. Now a new twist was added by Mr Chidambaram to the law. I think the new theory is inspired by the theory of relativity, it says the loss also depends on the current state of the matter. In his logic the loss is zero until minerals are mined. Irrespective of the fact that 148 coal mine do not belong to the Government Of India any more. The right of those mines belongs to 148 private owners which were given in throw way price. If you apply the same logic you can sell out all of your gold reserve in a throw away price, it will be zero loss unless you make ornaments out of it. Similarly you can sell out all of your food productions in throw away price but still it would remain zero loss, unless those are cooked. Most importantly you can put all of your black money in Swiss Bank. It will still be a zero loss to the Nation unless those are used. And this is the most important logic the UPA most frequently applies.
