Nilekani promises unique ID for Delhites in three years!

As it appears, Nilekani means business. After being appointed by the CM as the chairman of the Unique Identification Authority of India, Nandan Nilekani has made it a point to ensure smooth transaction.

In a recent report, we hear that the residents of Delhi would be receiving their ID in next three years time. The newly formed body to create Unique Ids is getting full co-opration from the govt.

Nilekani recently met Delhi Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit to give her an overview of the project and talk about various aspects of the project.

Nilekani is also keen to use the Mission Convergence database for this purpose which has been prepared by the City Govt.

This data base has records of about nine lakh households and 42 lakh people and gives biometric information on each resident.link
