Databasing Voters and Concerns on Privacy of Voters
summary
Argues that linking voter rolls to Aadhaar is a concrete policy push backed by UIDAI admissions that Aadhaar was built for a digital economy not state ID, cites documented fraud where minority scholarships were siphoned using Aadhaar workflows, notes UIDAI reports 8 crore updates a year and an unaudited, error‑filled biometric database, shows multiple local fraud cases and refusal to cooperate with investigations, and says there is no evidence on deduplication or migrant protections while the linkage endangers the secret ballot.
