Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI)

Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI) is a government agency in New Delhi that serves as the issuing authority for Aadhaar unique identification numbers (UIDs) and cards. The agency has been mandated by the government to develop, identify and set up the necessary infrastructure for issuing Aadhaar cards.

The UIDAI was established in 2009 and functions as part of the Planning Commission of India. The agency issues cards with the help of several registrar agencies composed of state-owned entities and departments as well as public sector banks and entities such as the Life Insurance Corporation of India. As of this writing, UIDAI has issued 20 crore Aadhaar UID numbers and cards across the country in the past two years. It expects to cover another 40 crore individuals by 2014.

UIDAI works in consultation with the Registrar General of India, which is responsible for census data in India. The agency is headed by the former chairman and co-founder of Infosys Ltd, Nandan Nilekani, who has the rank and status of a cabinet minister.

Many Achievements of Former PM Atal Bihari Vajpayee!

Ninety-one years ago a man was born who would become one of the most influential leaders in Indian history. Atal Bihari Vajpayee’s tenure as India’s 11th Prime Minster would be historic. As the first non-Congress politician to complete five years as Prime Minister, Vajpayee’s Premiership was as significant as it was eventful. For many observers Vajpayee’s successful navigation of what was called an “unwieldy coalition” was his biggest achievement; others praise his optimistic foreign policy while others applaud India’s economy under his rule. His tenure cemented the rise of coalition politics in India and witnessed events which would redefine Indian secularism and diplomacy.

Learning is something that is subjective, I have seen people coming to EY and learning and teaching us more than we expected, but some students come and just waste their time. Moreover, learning is about your willingness - people claim to learn lots at a young startup and there are some who do not learn anything at the biggest of firms. So it would be appropriate to say that there is no correlation between learning and company size. Coming back to Big 4s, I think one of most intriguing facts I read is that the big four firms audit 99% of all Fortune 100 companies . You can just imagine the kind of clients we have on our plate every morning. We deal with best of best and biggest of the biggest firms; firms that ac...
