Govt. pegs UIDAI’s allocation at ₹985 crore for FY21

The Hindu  

The government has raised fund allocation for the Unique Identification Authority of India — which issues biometric ID to residents — by 17% to ₹985 crore for the next fiscal starting April 1. In the current fiscal, the UIDAI was originally allocated ₹1,227 crore when the Modi-2.0 government presented the Union Budget on July 5, 2019. The UIDAI is the nodal body for Aadhaar, an identity infrastructure for delivery of various social welfare programmes and effective targeting of these services. In December 2019, the UIDAI had said that 125 crore residents of India have Aadhaar, the 12-digit unique identity number.
