Now, govt pushes offline tools to verify Aadhaar

In an effort to address fears over surveillance, breach of privacy and data farming, the Centre is promoting offline verification tools for Aadhaar such as QR codes and a paperless KYC that will not require sharing of biometrics or involve UIDAI servers for authentication. These processes will fulfil Supreme Court’s order ruling out Aadhaar authentication for private firms.
