Bureaucratic Double Standards on Aadhaar Linkage Exposed The Indian government's push for Aadhaar based authentication has been a cornerstone of its efforts to ensure efficient delivery of welfare schemes.
Over 3,100 DBT schemes and 360 public services now rely on this technology to prevent duplicate and ineligible beneficiaries from receiving benefits.
However, a peculiar anomaly persists: while the government demands Aadhaar linkage from citizens, many bureaucrats resist similar linking for their own Central Govt Health Scheme (CGHS) cards.
