8627 - Aadhaar seeding a hassle

August 29, 2015


Aadhaar seeding a hassle

I am a 90-year-old government pensioner who has trouble with the concept of Aadhaar card seeding. My Aadhaar card could not record my fingerprint as my fingers have become soft due to old age. The bank where I get my pension could not seed my account with the Aadhaar card and my pension payment order does not ‘seed’ as well. For the last 32 years, I got my pension, filed my IT returns, and the bank never gave me any trouble. Suddenly, this seeding business has become a monster and despite the Supreme Court orders on Aadhaar linkage, no one except Election Commission seems to be aware of it.
