Aadhaar (UIDAI) News & Updates

“BSF is approaching the concerned civil authorities for cancellation of Aadhar card, PAN card, driving licence, voter card, etc., in respect of apprehended Bangladeshi nationals and some of the Aadhaar cards have been cancelled by UIDAI.”
Why is Aadhaar being cancelled? It does not grant any rights or citizenship to the holder.

A senior BSF official said that in May this year, they apprehended a Bangladeshi national who had been living in Chennai for nine years.
The individual did satisfy Aadhaar eligibility criteria.
The Aadhaar Act, 2016 states, "Every resident shall be entitled to obtain an aadhaar number by submitting his demographic information and biometric information by undergoing the process of enrolment."

The Act further defines residency as, "An individual who has resided in India for a period or periods amounting in all to 182 days or more in the 12 months immediately preceding the date of application for enrolment."
 
@unAadhaarit These Bangladeshis use that supposedly fake, (but genuine) Aadhaar, fake PAN and fake birth certificate to get proper Indian passport. Yes there are several hospitals who give fake back-dated birth certificates. All three combined can be used to get an original Indian Passport

 
So everything fake is available and made genuine by Aadhaar? Aadhaar was linked to everything to weed out the fake(pan, ration cards,...) but you are saying it does the reverse. People like you should be more active in advising the law/policy makers.
 
Nine lakh people in Assam were denied Aadhaar for years. It turned out to be a mistake
Those who don't want are forced to enroll and those who need are denied.
And who paid for the mistake?
The official blamed the blocking of biometric data on an “erroneous” interpretation or “misinterpretation” of the Supreme Court’s directions. “The fallout of this whole mess of the decision of UIDAI to withhold Aadhaar cards has deprived 9.35 lakh people of basic entitlements and rights,” he said.
