Nice. Virtually any Govt & private companies are asking for Aadhaar number and now this twitter account wakes up from sleep

 

[Sushubh]

well. tbh, i did not post their next tweet which said to mark on every photocopy the purpose so that it cannot be used for any other purpose. i am not sure if you can write on the id card area (date and purpose) and submit the same.

What about aadhar card no given while taking Jio sim? Ambani got the biggest pvt database of aadhar card .

Right. Your number becomes public when you share a copy of the card.

Forgot about copy. I believe it becomes public once we share our fingerprint for availing any service like joining Jio

 

[Sushubh]

i assume fingerprint is not stored anywhere. just checked against the aadhaar database?

We dont know what finger print sensor JIO used. It may store it somewhere and then send to Aadhar verification.
