“The Aadhar project was started to deal with the leakage and corruption in our system.”
Usha Ramanathan, who has been consistently scrutinising the shoddy functioning of the Aadhar project, talks about how the initiative that was supposed to counter corruption has been ridden with corrupt practices itself. Criticising Nandan Nilekani for the failure of this project, Ramanathan says, as Nilekani’s marketing is better than his technology, we are stuck with it, even though it’s collapsing all around us.
