Lucknow: Barely some pace from Uttar Pradesh Legislative Assembly in Lucknow, fearless in one Base service center (Ask) Promise and distribute anything for a price. Even they reject a name similar to the deputy CM Brajesh reader,
When the reporter visited the Legislative Assembly route-based Ratan Square Complex to test a widely rumored tout racket, he was for many surprise. The crowded Aadhaar center postponed the three young women in the middle of them everywhere, which were also in the mid-20s, which were also part of the syndicate.
One such tout, which recognized himself as Rajesh, contacted this reporter. “I am from Bakshi’s pond area and I am a big fan of Deputy CM Brajesh Pathak. I want to change my name from Brijesh Pathak to Brajesh Pathak, but there are no documents to support it,” the reporter dropped the fodder. “Ho jayega (this will be done),” Rajesh nodded.
Tout came down to work. He took out his phone, downloaded another Brajesh Pathak’s real voter ID (epic) from Badoon, pasted the reporter’s picture on it, and added a fake barcode. Within a few minutes, he booked an immediate Aadhaar update appointment – 12:50 pm – on the same day. “Go directly to the verification. No question will be asked,” Rajesh assured, pocket of Rs 1,500 through UPI.
Inside the Aadhaar Seva Kendra, the script was absolutely promised. In Counter -5, the verifier barely looked at fake documents. At 2 pm, “Brajesh Pathak”, along with around 20 others, who sought Touts help, were called beyond the real applicants. The reporter was directed to Counter -22, where a young female operator mechanically processed her iris scan. In less than an hour, A Fake identity Was born. The reporter was embedded in a team of officers who went to check out in the check after the report after the report about the ID being fabricated.
For the last five years, the question has been operated by Ask Smart chip private limitedIndian subsidiary of the French Multinational Idemia Group.
Following the successful sting operation, TOI approached the group officials to comment on the rigging system at the Lucknow Center. But after waiting for a day, an official Edemia source said: “Since we are subject to the contract of UIDAI (the Aadhaar that the government agency issues), we cannot comment.” However, the source admitted that some employees in Ratan Square were actually allegedly involved in misconduct. But still, Smart Chip Private Limited has no mandate to examine documents.
A day earlier, Lucknow’s UIDAI Regional Office also sent at least two decoys to ask Ratan Square, and found that Smart Chip was involved in tout misconduct in connection with private limited staff.
Talking to Toi, Prashant Kumar Singh, Deputy DG of UIDAI (Lucknow region) accepted the matter. “A surprising inspection recently revealed irregularities at the Ask Ratan Square, inspired a decoy operation on April 21, which exposed the Modus Operanday. Reject submission. “
