53,000 denied of pension in Uttarakhand over lack of Aadhaar
Over 53,000 disabled persons, elderly citizens, and widowed women in Uttarakhand have not received their pensions since October 2016 as they could not procure Aadhaar cards, reports said. Neero Devi, the widowed mother of a 30-year-old disabled man, said her son's Aadhaar card could not be made despite multiple attempts as the biometric machine was unable to register his fingerprints.
