Thiruvananthapuram: The camapaign to issue
Unique Identity Numbers (UID) to people under the `Adhar`
scheme has been progessing well in Kerala having already made
62 lakh enrollments so far, according to Chief Minister Oommen
Chandy.

"Kerala appears to be ahead of most other state in
implementing the scheme with the state government providing
all support to it", Chandy said in reply to questions in
the state assembly today.
He said the government did not subscribe to the view that
UID was an attempt to encorach into the personal details of
the citizens and that it would be threat to their security
