Whose Child is it any way?
By Ram Krishnaswamy & Vickram Crishna
The opinion that Aadhaar, India’s Unique Identity Number that will eventually reside on every Identity Card or Identity Proof in India, is illegitimate, has been voiced by several legal experts right from the beginning. Most crucially, Mother India has been violated, because Aadhaar was conceived, and is being imposed, without the consent of Parliament.
According to lawyer Praveen Dalal, even the constitution of India has been totally neglected by Congress government in its zest to impose unconstitutional projects like Aadhar. Praveen Dalal further maintains that the UPA II Congress Coalition government is taking anti-national steps, and neither the Judiciary nor the Parliament is challenging it.
Even within the sanctity of a legal marriage, sex without consent is rape. Can India’s judiciary charge the UPA II coalition Government of violating the rights of an entire nation of 1.2 billion people, if the matter is taken to the courts?
This unholy creation called UID and later christened as Aadhaar, would not have been born, had an IUD been in place – i.e. contraceptive or preventative measures such as Public & Parliamentary debate and consent.
That Aadhaar is not an immaculate conception, but a Frankenstein, is opined by many God-fearing people, as also legal experts such as Usha Ramanathan. Ms Ramanathan says, “The project pegs its legitimacy on what it will do for the poor. It promises that it will give the poor an identity, with which they may become visible to the state.”
Unfortunately this legitimacy is, at best, a myth.
That Aadhaar is a threat to the privacy of Mother India’s entire population was first raised by Tehelka, that asserts, “We raised the issue of privacy long before any one else.”
“Privacy is not something that people feel, except in its absence. Remove it and you destroy something at the heart of being human,” writes Phil Booth, national co-ordinator of the UK-based campaign No2ID.
Whodunnit?
Whilst the legitimacy of what Aadhaar may, or may not, do for the poor is better left undebated and even less relevant, what is pertinent here is “Whodunnit?”
A whodunnit ( for "Who['s] done it?") is a complex, plot-driven variety of the detective story, in which the puzzle is the main feature of interest. The reader is provided with clues, from which the identity of the perpetrator of the crime may be deduced, before the solution is revealed in the final pages of the book.
Let us investigate who fathered Aadhaar from the following clues.
*****************************************
Suspect No.1. L.K.Advani, BJP Leader
Citing security concerns, senior BJP leader L K Advani said that if voted to power, the NDA will enact a law to make multi-purpose national identity cards mandatory for citizens of the country.
Security is the main concern for making national identity cards mandatory, he said in 2010, as he unveiled the IT Vision Document of the party for the forthcoming Lok Sabha elections. Advani pointed out the increasing infiltration of Bangladeshi nationals into the country, particularly in the northeast. There are an estimated two crore Bangladeshi immigrants staying illegally in the country, he said, and stressed on the necessity of having national identity cards for citizens. National identity card is the key promise of the IT Vision Document, Advani said.
Did Advani father this child called Aadhaar? That is highly unlikely, considering the nation divorced him in 2004, despite the India Shining claims by NDA. At best, it could be wishful thinking on Advani’s part, building on the failed attempt to impose identity cards on all border residents in 1999, following the Kargil war. The reader must concede that Advani is honest and speaks his mind, although his vision may not always be one befitting a free and egalitarian democracy.

Suspect No.2: P. Chidambaram, Home Minister
“The National Intelligence Grid (NatGrid), which has just been set up by Home Minister P Chidambaram, will turn India into an Orwellian police state. It has been opposed by Finance Minister Pranab Mukherjee, who argued that it infringes the privacy of citizens, and may be unconstitutional,” says Ravi Visvesvaraya Sharada Prasad, an IIT Kanpur Alumnus in his article “Will new Intelligence Grid make India a Police State”.
Ravi Prasad explains, “Under NatGrid, security agencies will be able to access sensitive personal information of all individuals, such as bank accounts, insurance policies held, property owned or rented, railway and airline tickets booked, income tax returns, driving records, automobiles owned or leased, credit card transactions, stock market transactions, educational background, phone calls, emails and SMSs, websites visited, etc.
“Under NatGrid, eleven agencies of the government (including Research and Analysis Wing, Intelligence Bureau, Revenue Intelligence, Enforcement Directorate, Military Intelligence, etc.) will be permitted to easily access computer databases of organizations in the private and public sectors as well as of central and state government agencies, such as banks, insurance companies, stock exchanges, land records, airlines, railways, telecom service providers, educational institutions, credit card issuers, chemical vendors, etc.”
Was UIDAI conceived by Chidambaram to act as the main hub of Natgrid to connect seamlessly to multiple Govt and Private databases to identify and track Indians in general ?
Quoting Ranjit Devaraj in IPS news, “Chidambaram said NATGRID would tap into 21 sets of databases that will be networked to achieve quick, seamless and secure access to desired information for intelligence and enforcement agencies.” He added that “NATGRID will identify those who must be watched, investigated, disabled and neutralized.”
It has been reported in the media that Chidambaram is not content with just finger prints and iris scans, and wants a DNA Databank.
“Chidambaram himself underscored the UID's security rationale by announcing the UIDAI's establishment in January 2009, as a timely response to the November 2008 Mumbai terror attacks,” says Praful Bidwai in his article 'Questionable Link'.
Murali Krishnaswamy, in an article in The Hindu titled 'It is Time to be Counted' points out that in his message, the Union Home Minister P. Chidambaram said, “I wish to point out that the National Population register is an important event. Never before have we tried an exercise of that scale. In fact, nowhere in the world has a Government tried to count, identify and issue identity cards to more than a billion people. This is the biggest exercise, I believe, since humankind came into existence.” His idea is that people will get unique ID numbers and also National Identity Cards. The slogan for Census 2011 is “Our Census, Our Future”, and the National Population Register exercise has been foisted on the Census, altering its character irrevocably for the first time since 1931, when a forward thinking policy decision removed the stigma of caste and creed from formal estimates of the country's makeup.
Is Aadhaar Chidambaram’s brainchild, hastily cobbled together from previous abortive attempts, after the Mumbai attack on 26/11, when he replaced a Home Minister who was held to have failed the nation?
****************************************
Suspect No 3: Prime Minister: Manmohan Singh
It is common knowledge now that India’s Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and Congress President Sonia Gandhi officially christened Aadhaar on 29th September in tribal dominated village Tembhali in Nandurbar district in Maharashtra.
It reminded the author of the money wasted - and sponged up by a well-placed few - in brightening up Mandabam Village, for the inauguration of Pamban Bridge
connecting Rameswaram Island with the mainland, by Prime Minister Indira Gandhi in the 70’s. It just shows that our leaders are still ashamed of the truth, and do not want to see the Real India.
The UIDAI was established by an executive order of the Union government, with its chairman Nandan Nilekani handpicked for the Cabinet minister-ranked job, by Prime Minister Manmohan Singh.
Prime Minister Manmohan Singh constituted a council under his chairmanship to advice the Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI) and ensure better coordination between ministries, stakeholders and partners. “The council is expected to advice the UIDAI on the programme, methodology and implementation to ensure coordination between ministries, departments, stakeholders and partners,” said a release from the Prime Minister's Office. It will also identify specific milestones for early completion of the project.
“Nandan Nilekani, the 54-year-old co-founder of Infosys Technologies, took charge as the chairman of the UIDAI last month and started work on the government's ambitious project to provide a single identity number and card to each of the country's 1.17 billion people.”
“The main task of the authority would be to create a database that will help in issuing unique identity cards”.
We cannot tell if the idea of Unique Identity is, in fact, what the head of state wants for the nation, or a decision of the Home Minister he was forced to endorse. But he is a firm supporter of his colleague, Montek Singh Ahluwalia, about whom more later.
****************************************
Suspect No 4 – Montek Singh Ahluwalia, Planning Commission Deputy Chairman
In political circles it is strongly believed that the man driving India’s PM is Montek Singh Ahluwalia, and not the Congress President Sonia Gandhi, as is believed by the masses, the opposition and the media.
Are our policies being dictated by the foreign privatisation lobby, asks Lola Nayar in her article “The Agenda Agents” in Outlook India?
Lola Nayar asks, “Then why are we surprised by the charge that India’s policymakers are 'toeing the line' dictated by the World Bank, IMF, ADB and so on? With many of our bureaucrats, technocrats and economists, including the Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and the Planning Commission deputy chairman Montek Singh Ahluwalia having served in some of these institutions, which profess pro-liberalisation and pro-globalisation ideologies, such a view has gained ground”.
Is Aadhaar a part of Montek Singh's privatisation plans to sell India’s vast asset, its population?
*************************************
Suspect No 5: Jairam Ramesh, Union Minister for Environment & Forests
Jairam Ramesh is the first IIT Bombay alumnus to become a Cabinet Minister in the UPA II Coalition Government. Nandan Nilekani is the second IIT Bombay alumnus to be given a Cabinet Rank by appointment by the Prime Minister Manmohan Singh to head UIDAI as Chairman. Jairam Ramesh and Nandan Nilekani, were quizzing partners at IIT Bombay. Like a few others listed here, Jairam Ramesh was with the World Bank on a short assignment in 1978.
Jairam Ramesh, Nandan Nilekani and Sam Pitroda are great believers of leveraging the Bottom of the Pyramid, a marketing concept propounded by the late Prof C.K. Prahalad. The latter gained much support in India, although in fact he lived mostly in the USA, and his working experience in India was exceedingly limited. This does not stand in the way of the staunch support afforded by his professed acolytes.
Did Jairam Ramesh pave the way for his friend Nandan’s meteoric rise to the Cabinet Rank, sans elections, by convincing the Cabinet that he is the man for the job – and, as critically, the man the nation will not question, because of his achievements as CEO of Infosys? The power of the tradional media to influence and occasionally to mislead, is undoubted.
Is Jairam Ramesh the real culprit?
*****************************************
Suspect No 6: USA & Barack Obama
Why would American President Barack Obama, making a short three day visit to India, take the risk of visiting the Taj Hotel in Mumbai which was one of the main targets in Mumbai attacks. He followed this up by an unscheduled visit to an Aadhaar enrolment station.
Alex Newman writes in the New American, “A bipartisan group of U.S. Senators is teaming up with the Obama administration to legalize illegal immigrants and require biometric national ID cards for every American worker, prompting a swift and bipartisan backlash across the nation.
The proposal would unilaterally and unconstitutionally force nearly all Americans to obtain new “tamper-proof” Social Security cards, while purporting to require that all employers purchase new $800 ID scanners. It would also provide a “path to citizenship” for the estimated 12 million to 20 million illegal immigrants currently living in America.”
India’s Aadhaar seems to bear an uncanny resemblance to Obama’s plan for USA, which has been blocked. The excuse of 20 million illegal migrants in USA, and 20 million illegal Bangladeshis in India, resonates - Vote Bank politics in both countries.
“Our plan has four pillars: requiring biometric Social Security cards to ensure that illegal workers cannot get jobs; fulfilling and strengthening our commitments on border security and interior enforcement; creating a process for admitting temporary workers; and implementing a tough but fair path to legalization for those already here,” wrote Graham and Schumer. “We would require all U.S. citizens and legal immigrants who want jobs to obtain a high-tech, fraud-proof Social Security card.”
This is where it gets confusing. Biometric Social Security cards in USA will ensure illegal migrants cannot get jobs; Aadhaar on the other hand is all about embracing illegal migrants in India with financial inclusion. At least that is the official line we are fed. Does this make sense, or is this marketing spin, choosing any line that will hold, echoing the famous globalisation slogan, 'Think Global, Act Local'?
President Obama promptly signalled his approval and pledged to “act at the earliest possible opportunity.” The White House released a statement noting that the President would do everything in his power to push the issue, and Obama called the Schumer-Graham proposal “a promising, bipartisan framework which can and should be the basis for moving forward."

Gautam Patel writes “In The Dark Side, a riveting account of ‘how the war on terror turned into a war on American ideals’, Jane Mayer shows how the Bush Administration’s extralegal counter-terrorism programme presented the most dramatic, sustained, and radical challenge to the rule of law in American history”. It has reached a new high, in the redefining of 'illegal' search and seizure, by authorising any police officer to justify an intrusive search on exigency.
“Terrorists pander to totalitarian regimes. The road to perdition is always paved with claims of necessity. India’s latest contribution to this is the NATGRID, a nation-wide intelligence network that our Home Minister plans to link to Mr Nandan Nilekani’s Unique Identity (UID) project, a DNA data bank and nearly 21 other database sets, all to be placed in the hands of intelligence agencies”
“This Big Brother scenario operates on a single, fatally flawed and thoroughly reprehensible presumption: every one of us is a potential ‘terrorist’, a threat to the nation. This is a governance of suspicion, a rule of fear. Forget privacy, and forget that it is a fundamental right. Its invasion is a necessity.”
“The error lies in the assumption that individual freedom is the enemy of collective safety. But liberty is not merely personal, though it is primarily that. It describes the state of an entire nation. Our freedoms were not easily gained.” Give me liberty or give me death is not a populist rant by some long-dead nonentity. “It means this: give me liberty, for without it I might as well not live.” writes Gautam Patel (a must read article). Our own Tilak echoed that tune with his eloquent “Swaraj is my birthright,” although its 'swar' has been muted by the claims of modern economists, to whom the nation has been entrusted.
“With Obama’s coming to power, the police order in America is getting tighter and tighter in two directions – strengthening internal security and militarization of civilian institutions. Tellingly, having condemned the infringements on individual freedoms done by the Bush administration, Obama has put his own staff under total control, by making them fill out a 63-question form that touches upon the most intricate details of their private lives. In January, the US President signed bills that enable the continuation of the illegal practice of abducting people, keeping them secretly in prisons, and moving them to countries where tortures are used.
“He also proposed a bill called National Emergency” (from Crisis as a way to build a totalitarian state).
It is not at all surprising that UID was included in the White House's Fact Sheet: The National Export Initiative: U.S. - India Transactions, which says "The Unique Identification Project: L-1 Identity Solutions, headquartered in Stamford, Connecticut, and another U.S.-headquartered company, lead two of the three vendor consortia, which have been pre-qualified by the Unique Identity Authority of India, for the first phase of an effort to register Indian residents with a 12-digit unique number using biometric identifiers. Unprecedented in scale, seeking to register 1.2 billion Indian residents, the Unique Identification program aims to enhance delivery of government services in India."
The sheet carries no mention of some, what the naïve might think would be relevant, facts: that L-1 has been blacklisted by several State Administrations for its poor quality of design and delivery, that it is was investigated by the SEC for suspicions of insider trading (and that the matter was settled out of court), and that the company is overwhelmingly staffed at the top by former US retired spy chiefs.
Shekhar Gupta’s relevant question to Bill Gates in an interview was : “Let’s go back to Capitalism 2.0 and America. America is now more polarised than it has been in a very long time. The debate again seems black and white. One side is saying what Obama is doing is almost anti-capitalist, is socialistic and driven by Nancy Pelosi. The other side says we are a capitalist country with flaws that need fixing. Where do you stand in this debate?” (Read full interview)
Is UID backed by US administration?
*****************************************
Suspect No 7: World Bank, CIA, FBI, L1 Identity
Hello! - is India the next target for USA now that it has played enough games in South America? Is India, the world's third largest economy, now the sought after 'greener pasture' for capitalists and corporations?
Is the world taking note of India’s phenomenal economic growth, and the fact that it is infested with corruption? Only the naïve will believe Jonathan Favreau's, oops President Obama's, eloquent, "India is not emerging, India has emerged".
At the top of the Aadhaar chain are multinational corporations like L-1 Identity Solutions – a company that has President Barrack Obama’s full backing.
The author’s concerns are echoed by Dr.Samir Kelekar, another IIT Bombay Alumnus like Nandan Nilekani in his article, “UID another big scam- watch out for FBI and CIA agents involvement”.
That is not all. India’s Finance Minister Pranab Mukerjee also urges US Companies to partner India . “The Government, on Monday, asked US companies to take part in India's financial inclusion programme, in a bid to not only bring more people into the banking network, but also ensure that the fast growth of the economy is inclusive and sustainable.”
A major concern is the involvement of L-1 Identity Solutions in implementing Aadhaar.
L-1 Identity Solutions and the World Bank have reached an agreement to insure all people in the world, including third world countries, are enrolled into a single global system of identification that translates into a single system of control.
With India’s Aadhaar already in the bag, one sixth of the global population will be accounted for.
Why is L-1 significant? L-1 is the largest biometric company in the United States, and arguably the world. L-1 provides nearly 95% of all US state driver’s licenses. It is involved in the production of all passports and passport cards. It is a global company that has had, or does have, on its Board of Directors, the former Directors of the CIA, FBI, TSA, and others. L-1 also has an intelligence division with ongoing contracts with nearly every intelligence agency of the federal government. In addition to losing a contract for misleading the client, and being accused by the SEC for insiders selling stock in advance of adverse financial news (settled suit) L-1, under its previous name Viisage Technology, overstated the capability of its biometric technology many documented times. Read the full article.
Will UIDAI’s database eventually merge with USA’s, to be managed by L1 Identity Solutions?
Now the question is, if US President Barack Obama, using India as a testing ground for developing biometric solutions and tools developed by L1 Identity Solutions and Morpho, to weed out problems, before implementing the same in USA?
History reminds us that the atomic bomb was tested on Japanese civilians who were asleep in Hiroshima on 6th August 1945. We have 1.2 billion Indians sleeping when UIDAI is busy manufacturing the time bomb as we speak.
History tells us how powerful the CIA is, and how it has been linked to assassinations of head of states, including President J.F.Kennedy himself.
The U.S. provided material support to the military regime of Augusto Pinochet after the coup (accomplished by assassinating the democratically elected leader, Salvador Allende), although criticizing it in public. A document released by the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) in 2000, titled "CIA Activities in Chile", revealed that the CIA actively supported the military junta after the overthrow of Allende, and that it made many of Pinochet's officers into paid contacts of the CIA or U.S. military, even though some were known to be involved in human rights abuses.[20]
*****************************************
Suspect No 8 : Nandan Nilekani, UIDAI Chief
Nandan Nilekani, the co-founder of Infosys, one of India’s biggest IT firms, is a corporate icon in his homeland. But to many readers outside the country he is best known for a stray comment he made to Thomas Friedman of the New York Times in February 2004. His remark (“Tom, the playing field is being levelled”) inspired the title and thesis of Mr Friedman’s “The World is Flat”, a big-think book about off shoring and globalisation, that sold millions of copies.
The publishers of “Imagining India”, Mr Nilekani’s admirable first book, must hope that many of those readers will be eager to hear the Indian side of the story, straight from the source. Not to disappoint them, Mr Nilekani provides a chapter on globalisation and two on information technology.
But “Imagining India” is a very different book from Mr Friedman’s bestseller. Mr Nilekani, an intellectual trapped in an entrepreneur’s body, seeks to understand India through the “ebb and flow of its ideas” and debates. Some of these arguments are now resolved, even forgotten. Others have yet to be joined. A third category of ideas commands assent, but no action. And some arguments still burn white-hot.
New York Times journalist, author and friend Tom Friedman describes Nandan Nilekani as a ‘great explainer’.
“Explain he certainly does, while taking upon himself the onerous task of inquiring into, probing, dissecting, delineating and engaging in profound research into what ticks, and what does not, about the complex entity called India. It is a heart-felt love for bettering the lot of its people that we see in page after page of this book, embedded with cold facts and incisive data. The jocular rhetoric and flamboyant flourishes of Friedman, media cheerleader par excellence of globalisation, is conspicuously absent here”.
Our Questions to Mr Nilekani, “Are you the driver of the bulldozer that will 'level' Mother India?” or should we say flatten?
“Debates”, Mr Nilekani? What debates, when you will not even answer questions at your so-called Public Lectures in controlled environments, where you hide behind the moderator? Forget public lectures, why not be brave enough to face National Advisory Council members, headed by Chairperson Mrs Sonia Gandhi?
Also Mr Nilekani: “Is Unique Identity or Aadhaar 'your idea' for India’s future, that you talked about in your TED speech?”
“Did you sell the Idea of Unique Identity/ Aadhaar to UPA II?”
And “are you the Chairman of UIDAI only because the Prime Minister asked you to?”
Lastly, “can you still assert that Aadhaar is not an Idea in Conflict?”
Curiously, Nandan Nilekani, in “Power of Identity”, talks about Chile and China. “In Chile, for instance, the National Identification Number is called RUN (Rol Único Nacional). It is used as a national identification number, tax payer number, social insurance number, passport number, driver 's licence number, for employment, etc. It is also commonly used as a customer number in banks, retailers, insurance companies, airlines, etc.
Since 2004, every newborn baby has a RUN number; before it was assigned at the moment of applying to get the ID card. Non-Chilean residents also get a RUN and an identification card.”
Will India become a modern avatar of Chile, controlled by the CIA? This is a question that Indians have to ask themselves.
Nandan goes on to say, “In China, an ID card is mandatory for all citizens who are over 16 years old. The 18-digit ID card is used for residential registration, army enrolment, registration of marriage/divorce, going abroad, taking part in various national exams, and other social or civil matters.”
Now, when did India begin to endorse China's totalitarian regime, with its inhuman control over its own population? Is this where India under UPA II is heading?
Does Mr. Nilekani deserve full credit for creating Aadhaar?
*************************************
Suspect No 9: Congress President Sonia Gandhi:
Is she a willing accomplice in creating Aadhaar, or has she been misled and coerced to participate?
We are aware that Sonia Gandhi backs Aadhaar for reforming PDS. “A senior Congress party official, who did not want to be identified, said that Gandhi had directed the government to initiate discussions with the Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI) in this context,” writes Liz Mathew.
We are also aware that Mrs Gandhi was concerned about questions raised by National Advisory Committee members like Jean Dreze and Aruna Roy, and requested Nandan Nilekani to address NAC concerns.
To this day Nandan Nilekani has not addressed NAC concerns.
*****************************************
Suspect No 10: M.Karunanidhi, Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu.
Not to be outdone by Congress, UPA II coalition partner and DMK chief M.Karunanidhi has taken the identity number to the next stage, a Biometric Identity Card for Tamil Nadu.
The Union government has agreed to the State government proposal to implement the biometric 'family cards' project (while noisily rejecting the Gujarat state government's own 'ID Card' project).
The Rs.300-crore TN project envisages taking up biometric capture of data, regarding beneficiaries of the public distribution system (PDS). A few weeks ago, Union Home Minister P. Chidambaram sent a letter to Chief Minister M. Karunanidhi, conveying the Centre's approval.
With Jayalalitha now being re elected as CM of Tamil Nadu, one has to wonder what the future of the ID card in Tamil Nadu will be.
*****************************************
Suspect No 11 : The Devil Himself
Chapter 13 Verse 17 of the Book of Revelations in the Bible says "... and that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark or the name of the Beast or the number of his name."
Revelation, Chapter 13 speaks of the beast and how to identify his followers. According to verses 16 and 17, they will have the mark or the name or number of the beast on their right hands or foreheads. Verse 18 introduces the number 666 itself: "Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six."
The Beast is not necessarily the Devil -- in fact, it is unlikely that they are one and the same. The Beast has a prescribed role in the final days, described in the Bible, as an evil entity in its own right.
The triplet of '6's is not directly evinced in India's UID project, but 'marking' individuals, the time-honoured imprimatur of the legendary Beast, has had its notable examples from history. Most implacably, the Nazi German government marked individuals for removal from humanity (by permanent exile to or death in 'work camps'), by tattoing identification numbers into their skin.
"Tattooing numbers may not be the favoured approach of the Indian government yet. Without any defensible legal sanction or parliamentary consensus, with Nilekani's help, it has named a less visible substitute. Unfortunately, its confidence - or hubris - is misplaced, for there is no scientific evidence that biometric markers such as fingerprints and irises are sufficiently valid unique identifiers for a population that numbers over a billion people. In fact, to believe in biometrics as identifiers, one only needs blind faith."
It is another matter that its faith is misplaced, for the followers of the Devil, by definition, do not need faith.
