Taking note of malpractices at three UID enrollment centres in the city, the BMC has asked the respective companies to blacklist their operators in these centres.
The three centres are in Govandi, Walkeshwar and Kandivali. Prachi Jambhekar, assistant commissioner, planning, said, “The civic body had received complaints of irregularities at these centres and we had asked the ward officials to look into the matter. It was found that they were demanding money to provide UID cards at these centres.” Accordingly, the civic body suggested to the Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI) that the operators should be blacklisted. This would ensure these operators would not be able to take up the data enrollment job anywhere.
