| No unique ID numbers, says Nilekani | 14-NOV-09 |
|
| Paying some extra money allows people to choose the number they want for their vehicles or cellphones. But there will be no such provision when it comes to the unique identification (UID) number which the government will implement soon.

| Sunil Sethi: The crisis of identity proofs | 14-NOV-09 |
|
| Bhim Mahto, a tribal from Hazaribagh in Jharkhand, had his wallet pickpocketed on a Delhi bus recently. He lost cash, his driving licence and his voter’s identity card. In more than 20 years that he has worked for me, I have rarely seen him in such distress. It wasn’t the theft of the money or the driving licence he was agitated about — these could be acquired again with some effort — but the loss of the pehchan patra, his voter’s ID, was incalculable. |

Earlier this year, multiplex owners and film production companies had a two-month-long stand-off over revenue share. |
