Context :
New
Aadhaar-based mechanism could solve the hassles of changing addresses in 2021 / Eco
Times
( Heading in ET print version > Aadhaar Data
can Auto Update on all Platforms for You / 01 Jan 2021 )
Extract (
from print version ) :
Ø
The govt is working to integrate the BACKEND
DATA to seamlessly update addresses at all
DATABASES linked to a person’s Aadhaar, the 12 digit Unique Identity Number
Ø
It means that if one has changed
his/her address in the Aadhaar Card, the person will get an option to AUTOMATICALLY UPDATE it everywhere else, including
banks, telephone operators, life insurance policies, gas connections, and
Permanent Account Number ( PAN )
Ø
It will do away with a lot of
unnecessary INCONVENIENCE suffered by people
Ø
It will also save Organizations time and resources in undertaking Know Your Customer (
KYC ) verification
Ø
In most cases, as Aadhaar is provided
these days for address verification and change, so why not have a SYSTEM which AUTOMATICALLY UPDATES the
details ACROSS ALL
DATABASES ?
Ø
The service will, however, be purely
VOLUNTARY and will be CONSENT BASED
Ø
The Ministry is currently working on
the BACKEND INTEGRATION , which will be done through the DIGITAL-LOCKER
Ø
This was meant to allow “Voluntary “
linking of the number to the upcoming HEALTH IDENTITY CARD for all projects as
well as existing government services such as obtaining driving license
===================================================
Dear Shri RaviShankar
Prasadji,
Congratulations
for initiating this FIRST STEP to integrate “ Backend Data “ of all databases
I
urge you,
Ø
Not to restrict this exercise to only “
Address Verification “
Ø
Extend it to attain “ ONE CITIZEN, ONE
CARD “ to eliminate ALL OTHER PERSONAL IDENTIFIERS
I
had suggested this, as far back as 2013 , in my following blog :
Ø Raining Cards ?
/ 30 Jan 2013
Then, one year ago, I sent following e mail :
I
am One , I will become Many ( एको अहम् बहुस्याम ) / [ 06 Jan 2020 ]
- Where I suggested as follows :
Ø Central Govt to launch a online portal
called, www.SUIIC.gov.in
( Single Unified Identity for Indian Citizen )
Ø By appropriately enacted Law, Central Govt will order all CARD ISSUING
AGENCIES to upload their “ Card
server and continue to do so DAILY for new additions to their databases
Ø SUIIC will use AI - Machine Learning - Big Data Analytics etc. to merge /
collate all kinds of structured /
kinds of Cards / unique IDENTIFIERS, issued by any entity, to any
citizen
These will include Mobile Service Providers and E Mail ID providers
Ø This exercise will lead to creation of UNIQUE PROFILE for each citizen, and
named :
YUP
( Your Unique Profile )
YUP ( with unique serial number ) will be that SINGLE CARD which replaces
all CARDS
Ø YUP will
also be the name of a Mobile App supported by SUIIC web server
Ø Any citizen can download the YUP ( absolutely VOLUNTARY ), open it on his
smart phone, enter his
own FACE
Ø The Mobile App will automatically and instantly, upload the FACE IMAGE
onto SUIIC database and the
Ø SUIIC will embed into the FACE PHOTO, all data of all the CARDS ever
issued to that person ( using
owner’s mobile phone
Ø Just under the FACE PHOTO, there will be a DROP LIST of all the Cards /
Identifiers which
have been
actual Physical Card
Ø This will enable that citizen to EDIT his personal data online and click
SUBMIT
Ø Anytime required in future, that citizen can show that YUP photo to any
party
Ø There will be no compulsion for any citizen to use YUP. He may continue
using his Physical Cards, if he so
=================================================
This is a very broad
“ CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK “ – and
certainly not comprehensive by any standard
Eg :
Going
beyond merging / aggregating / unifying, all existing physical cards belonging
to a person, what about :
Ø Enabling him to use YUP to create ( for the first time ), an altogether
different card ?
Ø Enabling person to create a new Voter Card,
upon attaining the age of 18 ?
I
urge Shri Ravi Shankar Prasadji to
get this examined by some eminent technologists
==================================================
Dear Shri Ravishankar Prasadji,
If
the ultimate goal of AI is to dramatically improve “ EASE of LIVING “ index, then my suggestion
would fall in the category of , what Peter
Diamandis calls a, MOONSHOT
“ Your Moonshot Mindset gives you permission to tackle crazy ideas....
(2) You are willing to take the risks necessary to transform industries
and society for the better. You recognize that those with a Moonshot Mindset are the innovators making the world a better
place, moving humanity forward, and charting the future. “
