Go, get your UID card now!

July 6, 2011
Mangalore, July 6: Now, Mangaloreans will have their own unique identity number as the enrollment for biometric unique identity (UID) card, an initiative of the Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI), was launched here on Wednesday at Mangalore Head Post office at Pandeshwar here in the first phase by Additional Deputy Commissioner Prabhakar Sharma.

Mr Sharma launched the scheme by handing over acknowledgement slip of UID to Ln JK Rao, District Governor of Lions Club.

Speaking on the occasion, Sharma suggested the officers of Postal department to take much care while entering data of individuals. The much ambitious UID project will be helpful for the development, security concerns and integrity of the country, he added.

Senior Superintendent of Mangalore Postal Division TG Nayak said that the service will be extended to Kulashekhar, Kankanady and Ullal in the second phase, and in the third phase, the service will be available at Hampankatta, Kodialbail, Kankanady and Bejai.

Further, it will be extended to Ashoknagar, Panambur, Surathkal, Mulky, Haleyangady, Kinnigoli, Bajpe, Carstreet, Katipalla, Munkur and Gunjimutt, he said.

Explaining the purpose and issuance of UID, Mr Nayak said that the UID scheme aimed at issuing a random 10-digit alphanumeric identity number to every Indian citizen. This identification number will be stored in a centralized database and linked to the basic demographic and biometric details of the holder.

Every individual interested in getting a UID card can collect the application form from post office.

The applicant will have to present address proof, identity proof (passport, PAN card, driving licence, ration card, voter-ID card). The verifier will check the documents. This will be followed by iris (eye ball) scanning and fingerprints of all 10 fingers. Then these details would be matched the details of the already enrolled UID holders via centralized server and after de-duplication (process of confirming that the same person does not get two UID cards) the applicant will get his UID card delivered at his address. The card is being issued free of cost as per the Union government notifications.
