The government of India has decided
to use Global
Positioning System (GPS) for tracking of Aadhar UID Devices at all the CSC centres that scan the iris and
take fingerprints of people registering for their 12-digit unique identification
number. Phase II of the UID registration drive will be started form April 2017.
The need for
GPS-based UID machines was felt for enhancing security of the machines. It was
seen that the authorities did not have any means of knowing where the machines
were being stored. It was left to IT companies that take up the job to
safeguard the machines. The GPS-enabled tracking will help now all the
authorities concerned to track each machine and it will cut down chances of any
tampering with the machines or theft, explained an official.
GPS-tracking
will also avoid problems that had cropped up during phase I of the drive.
Officials said there had been incidents when residents would go to a
registration centre, which would either be closed or would not have these
machines.
In case a
centre is closed or not functioning, the GPS
tracker will help citizens identify centres that are open. All information
regarding GPS-based machines will be put up on the website so that citizens can
check and go to the nearest centre," said Bhogale.
