Unique identification (UID) enrolment centres in the city will reduce
drastically because the state government’s information technology (IT)
department has asked all non-state registrars to stop their operations until
they sign an agreement with them.

Non-state registrars include nationalised banks such as Bank of India, Bank
of Maharashtra, Union Bank of India, State Bank of India and LIC, India
post, who have signed memorandum of understanding (MoU) with the Centre to
carry out UID enrolments.



The department will also ask non-state registrars to carry out their
operations in remote areas instead of metros. As a result, the UID centres
in the city are expected to close down.

“In the metros, majority of people have the required documents to avail of
the government-run schemes. People in interiors, however, do not have such
proofs and therefore they do not get the benefits, which they deserve.
Since, UID registrations are undertaken mainly to identify people who
require benefits of government-run schemes, we will request non-state
registrars to focus on remote areas,” said Dr Santosh Bhogle, under
secretary (IT).

In the letter addressed to all non-state registrars and local authorities,
the department has stated, that certain non-state registrars are not
complying with the state’s decision, specifically of filling the know your
resident (KYR) form prescribed by the state.

“This data will be utilised to provide to both the state and central
government. Therefore, it is important to both the governments. Certain
non-state registrars, however, were providing data only to the Centre. To
streamline this, all non-state registrars need to sign an agreement with the
state and only then begin enrolment activities,” Bhogle said.

Mahesh Narvekar chief officer of the civic body’s disaster cell and in
charge of UID enrolments said, “We received the letter around 4-5 days ago.
We have instructed all non-state registrars to stop work. We have also
instructed ward officers to keep a check on their centres.”

*The UID project i**s going to do almost exactly the same thing which the
predecessors of Hitler did, else how is it that Germany always had the lists

of Jewish names even prior to the arrival of the Nazis? The Nazis got these
lists with the help of IBM which was in the 'census' business that included
racial census that entailed not only count the Jews but also identifying
them. At the United States Holocaust Museum in Washington, DC, there is an
exhibit of an IBM Hollerith D-11 card sorting machine that was responsible
for organising the census of 1933 that first identified the Jews.*
