AADHAAR is a proof of Identity and not of Citizenship
Anyone living in India can apply for it including NRI/OCI holders and even foreigners living in India


Can NRIs/PIO/OCI apply for Aadhaar Card?
As per Aadhaar Act, 2016, NRIs/PIO/OCI card holders are eligible for enrollment of Aadhaar card only if they reside in India for over 182 days in the last twelve months immediately preceding the date of application for enrolment. It may be mentioned that most of NRIs/PIOs/OCIs may not be eligible for Aadhaar enrolment as per Aadhaar Act, 2016.

You then need to register your face (they take photo of you), your fingers prints (they take all 10 fingers prints on an electronic device) and both your eyes (they give you a sort of binoculars to look through which your eyes or iris are registered).- see pic
Then you are given a receipt with enrolment number.
Whole process will take about 10-12 minutes per person, however, where Qing system in place, it can take up to 4 hours
e.g. At Panaji enrolment centre only about 120 persons allowed per day on first come first serve basis. For this one has to be in the Q before 10am and again before 2pm as only 60 token issued per session.

There are 4 enrolment desks or counters which means max 4 persons are enrolled in 10 minutes. It can delay due to breakdown or system down, power failure etc
Panjim MLA office is also an additional centre (update Oct/2012)
Near ICICI bBank, Atmaram Borcar Road, Panjim

Two brothers deaths in the house, same day



Two brothers deaths in the house, same day

When younger brother 18, returned back, he saw his brother 28, already dead.
He too died the same way, same day.

A well to do family with land property, car, rooms on rental etc

Now, there is no one left in the house.

No brother, no sister, no father, no mother

Don’t understand why they did it, particularly the younger one.

Lord, take them into your arms.
