Leprosy patient loses pension over lack of Aadhaar in B'luru
A 65-year-old leprosy patient in Bengaluru stopped receiving her pension as her account was not linked to an Aadhaar card. She could not register her fingerprint or iris for an Aadhaar card as she lost her fingers and her eyesight due to the disease. The hospital where she is admitted has requested UIDAI to exempt her from biometric verification.
