India makes worlds biggest #Covid19 Vaccination drive as a Peoples registry building #surveillance Project. This is the consent collected by a temporary contract employee on a desktop when someone getting vaccinated.

As pointed earlier, This govt plans more aadhaar collections and heath ID generation than increasing efficiency of vaccination.

I hope @rssharma3 will respect this and won't force aadhaar for vaccinations.
In past we have seen DoT issuing Mobile Aadhaar Re-KYC order citing a non existing SC order
I really expect Govt won't do such mischievous acts this time gatekeeping public health of Indians.

Physical Document Verification was the most popular identification method before vaccination. Now it is being replaced with mandatory authentication with Aadhaar, if you voluntarily produced Aadhaar for Identification prior to Vaccination.

Again, I urge everyone who is concerned with data breaches in India to file a complaint. If you can't expect them to act under current laws, don't expect suddenly a data protection law will change things dramatically #mobikwik
