| Ranjana Sonawane - the first Indian to get a Aadhar Card |
Ranjana Sonawane, a 30-year-old housewife from the northern
Maharashtra village of Tembhli became the first Indian to get a Unique Identification Number.
One of modern India's biggest schemes — the UID or Aadhaar —
was launched by UPA chairperson Sonia Gandhi and PM Manmohan Singh from
Nandurbar district.
''The aim of the
UID scheme is to bring transparency in the system,'' Gandhi said, adding that
Indians with UID could reap benefits of such schemes anywhere in India. The Unique
Identification Authority of India started functioning in August 2009 and
government committed itself to issuing first set of Unique ID numbers in 12 to
18 months.
