Hi
It is my personal opinion that UDID should be made mandatory for
availing all services for the disabled.It should be the only
identification means for authenticating disability.
Having said this, all the services should be put in place before the D
date and scaling up should be fully factored in. There are numerous
benefits to us through UDID. We should not fall into the temptation of
stalling the effort and rather we should clearly not join them.
There may be some difficulty for sometime. That always happens during
transition. As what they say, you don't throw the baby with the bathwater
I am well aware, there is going to be sharp reactions to my line of
thought, however I am convinced UDID is progressive and disabled
friendly and this is the most important thing which can make huge
changes for our benefit.

Dear Muralidharan,
Thank you for taking up these matters. I pray you meet some
success. In India it seems a lot of this is going on: They make
something inaccessible to achieve, manditory to achieve.
Everybody should have 5 biscuits each from the packet of
biscuits, but there is an empty biscuit packet on the table even
before the distribution to all the attendees. This is my
experience having come to India. Very sad and ironical. Aadhaar
for the blind is impossible here in Vrindavana because the agents
say the retina scan cannot be bypassed. Without Aadhaar I cannot
get UDID either. When I went to buy my home, they refused because
a blind person cannot own property. We have to be linked with a
sighted person who has Aadhaar so that the property can be
registered with the sighted person’s name. I am very hurt by this
behaviour in India, and there seems to be no authority in place
who really cares to actually do something.
Can you please help me? Very pained and frustrated. Sometimes I
feel life was better under our former captivity of slave-owners
and later the African leadership who hate Indians in Africa. I
came to India to become free. How wrong was I? Now having
returned home after 4 generations away, I return home only to
find we are slaves here to a highly corrupt and disorganized
administration. For example, the National number for the Aadhaar
Helpdesk is 1947. Guess what! Only problem is it does not exist!!!
Thanks a lot however for doing what you can. Evidently you are
fighting a very difficult battle and my heart is with you. May
Bhagavan Sri Ramachandra who was the most organized and loved
King on Earth, walk with you – no – carry you through this fight.

*Subject:* [AI] Issues with UDID
March 18, 2023
As all of you are aware, the UDID is being made mandatory from
April 1, 2023 for registering for central government schemes.
This even while more than half of the disabled who have
certificates, have not been issued UDID or have enrolled but not
been issued certificates, or have been unable to enroll for it,
due to various issues.
UDID is being made compulsory even when central government’s own
ministries/departments viz. railways, for admissions to MBBS, for
recruitment in jobs, or many institutes of higher learning are
refusing to accept the validity of the card
The NPRD has written to the DEPwD objecting to the mandatory
imposition of the UDID.
It has also raised the issue of the refusal by various
departments to accept its validity.
Notwithstanding this, we would like to list before the
department, the issues that the disabled are facing with regard
to procuring UDID.
One of the main issues that has been identified especially in the
rural areas is about non-availability of seva kendras, private
centres charging hefty amounts, or they being far away including
their inaccessibility. Second issue identified is about card not
being issued despite passage of a long time after enrollment.
We are seeking a meeting with the Secretary DEPwD next week. The
issues that we are attempting to list will be placed before him.
You are requested to assist us by informing us of the issues that
you face. You may please mail to us by March 20, 2023 evening at
[email protected]
