  1. ADHAAR ENROLMENT SHOULD B STOP AT ONCE DUE TO PRESENT SITUATION OF MIGRATING FROM BURMA OR ELSE ADHAAR ENROLMENT SHOULD CARRIED OUT FROM DOOR TO DOOR,UR VALIDITY UPTO DECEMBER IS THE OPEN HAND WELCOME OF MIGRANT

  2. Hon’le sir,
    There are many who owned Aadhar card without his/her name in Census list. In the Aadhar enrolment system itself, I fear of some loophole which is being exploited by Aadhar enrolment agencies. This will surely affect the demography of our State in near future. Hope your govt. shall have a look into the matter.
