Building out the UID

UIDAI launches Aadhaar-enabled electronic know your customer service (Times of India)
Under the e-KYC process, one can authorise the UIDAI to release the KYC data to a service provider. The consent can be provided either in person (through biometric authentication) or online. The UIDAI will provide the details like name, address, date of birth, mobile number and email address to the service provider electronically.
The promise of UID is in the apps. It's nice to see them starting to trickle through.
