Bangalore:
The Bangalore chamber of Commerce and Industry today urged UPA government to immediately accord cabinet sanction to continue the Unique Identification Authority of India project beyond 200 million enrolments to enable schemes reach the vulnerable sections of society.
"Since (UIDAI) project is getting very popular and over 60,000 operators have been certified and one lakh support staff is deployed on UID process, the process of enrolment should not be pulled out or stalled," Bangalore Chamber Industry Commerce (BCIC) President Vinod Nowal said in a statement.
Bangalore Chamber Industry Commerce (BCIC) feels the "savings on this account would be immense and would help stress financial resources to reach desired people," he said.
Bangalore Chamber Industry Commerce (BCIC) Senior Vice President M Lakshminarayan said the UIDAI project should continue in the overall interest of the nation as it would augment the uplift of BPL strata which is still left out of the inclusive growth.
