April 12: With about 98 per cent of people in the state producing ration cards as identity proof for obtaining their Aadhaar/ Unique Identity cards, the mistakes in the ration cards are creeping into the Aadhaar cards.
Applicants who want to change spelling mistakes or wrong date of birth can do so with valid supporting documents. Many prefer ration cards to Election Photo Identity card (EPIC) and PAN cards as identity proof, as it contains names and the date of birth of all the family members apart from the residential address. When it was pointed out to a woman that the address in her Aadhaar enrolment form didn’t tally with the one in her ration card, she blamed the DPL employees. “It’s our own house but they made a wrong entry. They don’t seem educated, she said while referring to operators in DPL centres.
Mr Syed Ansarul, a supervisor at the Aadhaar centre, Dilsukhnagar attributed widespread mistakes in ration cards to ill-trained operators at the DPL centres. “Most of the time it happens that the operators have studied in Telugu medium. If they had studied at least till Intermediate in English medium and trained, they could do justice,” he said. He also maintained that mostly major mistakes in ration cards were seen in Muslim inhabited areas and officials should appoint trained operators who were familiar with Muslim names.
One Mr Chandramohan, who is an illiterate, approached the Aadhaar centre with two ID proofs, a ration card and a PAN card, but neither had the correct date of birth. He said that his age was correctly mentioned in the ration card but there was no date of birth and his age was mentioned as four years younger in the PAN card. In another instance, when 60-year-old Mr Dhulipala Sitarama Sastry applied for Aadhaar, the operators got his name wrong. Though he wrote his name as “Sastry”, the operators at the centre entered it as “Sastri” going by what was written in the ration card.
Mr Mohd Abdul Jabbar had applied for a change of address and date of birth in his ration card at an e-Seva centre but they were not changed in the new ration card though the acknowledgement showed that the mistake had been rectified. When the same was pointed out, he was asked to apply again.

However, civil supplies officials maintained that if the request for correction in ration cards was proved to be correct after verification, it would be approved otherwise it would be rejected.

The reports are that the much exaggerated aadhar card is full of mistakes , just like it is in the Election ID card.
One person saw that his name in vernacular language was wrong if not funny , the officer in charge replied,"it is the transliteration by the computer , we can do nothing about it".

Sir,
The process of our family's registration for UID (Aadhaar Card) was over last week (1st week of January 2010). Voter ID was our address proof. There is a mistake in our voter id (Residence number). During the registration the persons who are working in the Aadhaar office, have entered what is in Voter ID, they entered the same, and not accepted to enter the correct Residence number of ours.
Sir, please inform us, is there any possibility to make corrections before getting Aadhaar Card?
Please reply sir. I am awaiting your reply.
Thank you,
Yours sincerely,

Self and family stood in the line at Akwada village, Bhavnagar district, Gujarat and got the adhaar formalities done. As I was told, I took photocopy of my ration card and voter's ID detais, notwithstanding they both had absolutely funny addresses. The dealing officer dealing with the adhaar formalities refused to allow me to put the correct address and insisted on keeping the address given in ration card. I felt helpless. Then near my office too another group of people were issuing form of adhaar for us to fill which I have not filled yet. They said bring the correct address proof and it could be even bank passbook. See these people have given us form for us to fill but at Akwada they were filling themselves. I do feel we should be allowed to fill the form for correct details and address. I wonder if I could fill a fresh form eventhough I have the receipt from earlier one from Akwada village, Bhavnagar district, Gujarat. Apparently different people are giving different advice to the citizens and I am afraid my final Adhaar ID will have all faulty details.
