The government will launch a new initiative to provide Aadhaar card along with birth certificate for new born babies.
Until now, when children were born, only birth certificates were issued at the hospital. But there is also a state that is going to start a pilot program where newborn babies will be given Aadhaar card along with birth certificate. Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sharma said on Wednesday that the state government is going to start a special scheme to issue birth certificate and Aadhaar card simultaneously to new born babies in 13 medical colleges. 'It will start from medical colleges,' Chief Minister Sharma told a PC in Guwahati, “Now a center will be set up in medical colleges where Aadhaar cards will be issued to newborns within days of birth.” He said that the initial phase would be started on a financial basis in medical colleges and later it would be extended to district hospitals. The motive behind this is that new born babies should get both important documents immediately after birth and not have to stand in queues to get it later. During PC, CM Sharma announced Rs.
