Lt Governor VK Saxena has called on the Delhi government to tighten security protocols in issuing Aadhaar cards, highlighting the potential risks posed by illegal migrants obtaining such documents.
The concerns were addressed in a letter from Ashish Kundra, principal secretary to the LG, to the Delhi chief secretary. The letter noted several cases where illegal immigrants secured Aadhaar cards through false documentation, subsequently gaining access to other official documents and government benefits.
To mitigate these risks, the LG has mandated a review of the responsibilities under the Aadhaar Enrolment Regulations, urging strict compliance and a shift to an in-house enrolment model within two months. He further instructed for monthly audits to ensure adherence to regulations.
