Aadhar products evolves fast under Modi in India

Read previous posts on Aadhar here:

This is what Aadhar is:
Aadhaar is a 12 digit individual identification number issued by the Unique Identification Authority of India on behalf of the Government of India.
This number will serve as a proof of identity and address, anywhere in India. Aadhaar letter received via India Post and e-Aadhaar downloaded from UIDAI website are equally valid.
"
New products have been developed around Aadhar which have the blessings of Mr.Modi:

The Biometric attendance system at all Government Offices as reported here:

No more late arrivals; after lunch walks and shooping before returning to work and early exits from offices. This is a really good piece of news as I have noticed myself many times half the seats in the office are empty at any given time. This alone should improve the productivity by a good 40 to 50%.
The next picture is from the above source.


The Jeevan Pramman-Digital Life Certificate for pensioners as reported here:

This simplifies the life of pensioners a lot. Now they do not have to present themselves in person to obtain their pensions.

The following paragraph is from this Economic Times' URL,
"The Department of Electronics and IT has developed a software application which will enable the recording of the pensioner's Aadhar number and biometric details from his mobile device or computer, by plugging in a biometric reading device. Key details of the pensioner, including date, time, and biometric information will be uploaded to a central database on real-time basis, ultimately enabling the Pension Disbursing Agency to access a Digital Life Certificate. This will conclusively establish that the pensioner was alive at the time of authentication,"

Providing an identity goes a long way to help corruption especially those that are subsidized to help the economically backward to get their rations but miss used by profiteers.
