Hello everyone, I'm Devarshi.

In my opinion, the Aadhar databse is secured as the idea of safeguarding the individuals information is inherent in the UID Project. The data is collected by a UIDAI software and is encrypted to prevent any leaks during the transit.

I agreed with all of you. As Aadhar is basically an identity proof but due to corruption and need for money has made the people corrupted in such a way that these cards are also being hacked. If all this continues, then there would not be a bright future for our country.

It would be exaggerated if I say it is more secure!.

Recently I have listened.

Someone has two Aadhaar number of the same identity. How is it possible? it only possible when data leaks. It does not mean that govt take no step against the security of data. Nowadays UAIDAI has announced about virtual id which will be valid till 24 hours. Everywhere you were asked Aadhaar number then you must be used 16 digits virtual id which is generated by UAIDAI.

As per my views, on this topic is positive for the secure database. If you use your Aadhaar no. Anywhere like when a person buy a sim card, KYC, Banking purpose then it will also send a mail as well as message to the registered email and registered mobile number. It is also secure because of the bio-metric.

Thanks.

Yeah, definitely Aadhar database is secured as it is a unique ID for the identification of people for taking example like in any murder case if the victims face is brutally beaten up and police didn't get information by simply see the body then police can use the Aadhar card to reveal the identity of the person and from our Aadhar card we can identify fake calls too and if there is a bank problem then we can get information through Aadhar too like mobile number and many other things.

Besides these above mentioned facilities Aadhar card also includes various steps to access anything or get information which makes some people even difficult to understand the procedure and if there is an emergency and urgent need of Aadhar card to resolve the problem then I didn't think that not every person would carry his/her Aadhar card in the pocket every time.

In my perspective, linking Aadhar card nuber is fine to some of the aspects but the acute thing is linking to mobile services having the deadline march 31st is really creating pressure on public.

But don't you all think that the Indian government is making Aadhaar card necessary or mandatory in each and every governing field. And if we are having our PAN card for the transaction of money then what is the need of Aadhaar card for the same, one disadvantage of Aadhaar card is that it is making Things complicated.

The Aadhaar database is not linked to any other databases, or to information held in other databases. The database is guarded both physically and electronically by a few select individuals with high clearance. There are some criminal penalities for unauthorised access to the database and tampering with the database.

Despite these criminal penalities, ultimate every security system is prone to risk of human error or mischief.

Hi friends,

It is really useful one that link our Aadhaar with other identities such as PAN card, Driving license, Bank account. Etc. It reduces the fraudsters happened over our accounts. By linking Aadhaar, beneficiary of scheme is particularly given to the people, rather goes to all. Maintain single identity is better compare to all identities to be carried.

Yes, definitely, it is secured as we can take the example of simcards because earlier there is no restrictions for buying simcards And many of the people misuses this and now we connected our simcards to our Aadhaar card and we can easily detect fake calls also.

As it the unique id given to us by the government of India that can also be beneficial at the time of elections.

But don't you all think that Indian government is making aadhaar card necessary or mandatory in each and every governing field. And if we are having our PAN card for the transaction of money then what is the need of aadhaar card for the same, one disadvantage of aadhaar card is that it is making Things complicated.
