Ukhrul, August 04 2017:
The Tangkhul Naga Wungnao Long (TNWL, Tangkhul Headmen association) of Ukhrul district has asserted that the biometric exercise taken up to issue Aadhaar cards has not covered many villages despite the fact that Aadhar card has become necessary to avail many opportunities under MGNREGS, NFA, PMAY etc .
Despite this, the names of many beneficiaries are likely to be deleted as the biometric exercise is yet to cover all the people in Ukhrul district and they are still to get their Aadhar card, said TNWL .
The TNWL has also warned all mobile service providers Airtel, Vodafone, Aircel and the BSNL against the constant network failure .
A joint coordination meeting of all service providers to discuss the related problems has been convened on August 7 at TNL ground, Wino bazar to discuss and sort out the outstanding issues .
The TNWL has also urged the people to submit their detailed report to its office so that it can request the district administration to extend the submission date of documents until the Biometric Enrolment exercise covers all the villages.
