Yes this letter looks good.

They have a section for technical architecture here.

http://uidai.gov.in/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=153&Itemid=13

We can request them to publish another diagram with product and vendor
label for each component.

It is OK if they have proprietary software at the client side. They must
support both proprietary OS and FOSS OS at the client side given the wide
deployment of clients.  It is NOT OK if they use proprietary software at
the server side. ( MS SQL, ASP, IIS etc ).
