WHAT IS UID ?
The Unique Identification Authority Of India is

an agency of the government of India responsible for implementing the envisioned unique identification card (UID CARDS) project in the country. It was established in February 2009. The Authority aims at providing a unique number to all Indians.

AADHAAR(UNIQUE ID PROJECT)
Indias

ambitious unique id project Aadhaar which aims to give every Indian citizen a unique number mapped to biometrics, was launched in the Nadurbar district of Maharashtra. Aadhaar is a 12-digit unique number which the Unique Identification Authority of India will issue for all residents. UIDAI will enable a universal identity infrastructure that any Id based application like ration card , passport etc can use.

Benefits Of UID
UID is foremost important for a country like India

which has the second largest population in the world and has also been the target of some of the most brutal terrorist attacks in recent pasts. Eligibility or ownership verification would be facilitated.

UID cards are available for all classes of people.

NATIONAL POLICIES
A number of countries & continents have identity cards. These include Austria , Finland , Iceland , Hungary , Sweden , Switzerland & United Kingdom. A number of countries & continents do not have national identity cards. These include Australia, Canada, Denmark, Ireland, Japan , New Zealand, united states.

Limitation of UID
The cost of introducing and

administering an identity card system can be very high. Commercial organizations such as bank typically do not try to authenticate the identity of a person but rather the validity of a transaction due to the acknowledged difficulty in reliably identifying an individual in a fraud proof and convenient manner.

Devise- Develop and test the UID. Build- Populate the system through data migration. Enhance- Integrate other systems.

 Hi-tech multi-purpose national identity cards,

carrying 16 personal details and a UID numbers, were launched in DELHI in 2007. The identity cards are issued to citizens above 18 years of age. The card has a SCOSTA micro-processor chip with a memory of 16 KB which is secured against tampering.

MALAYSIA
Malaysia is regarded as the first country to introduce smart identity cards a proof of success in large scale incorporation of biometrics .

GERMANY
It is compulsory for all German citizens age

16 or older, who reside in Germany to possess either a IDENTITY CARD. While police officers and some other officials have a right to demand to see of those documents, the law does not state that one is obliged to submit the documents at that very moment.

UNITED KINGDOM
o The UK government is progressively

introducing compulsory identity cards for foreign nationals resident in the UK from late 2008. o Identity cards for British nationals was introduced in 2009 on a voluntary basis and only workers in certain high security professions, such as airport workers will be required to have an identity card. o Driving licenses and passports are now the most widely used ID documents.

register for the computerized national identity card with a unique number at age 18. Earlier on national identity card were issued to citizens of Pakistan now government has shifted all its existing records of NIC to the central computerized database managed by NADRA.

RECOMMENDATION
We wish that may the implementation of UID solves the problem of our country i.e. equal distribution of Income and to deal with the problem of terrorism as they are unnecessary disturbing the peace of the country . To stop the entrance of unnecessary migrants entering our country and taking undue advantage .
