Single Sign On Process
 Is single/unified national database
catering to various services possible?
 Is such a database legally enabled?
 What are operational implications?
 What are cost implications?

Citizen ID Processes
Multiplicity of Citizen ID Processes

million eligible voters do not have EPIC
 Income Tax Act (PAN Card) / Motor Vehicles Act (Driving
License)
 Executive Instructions (Ration Card)- Illegal to use for any
other purpose
 Nasscom- National Skills Registry for IT/ITES Professionals
(Software Engineer Unique ID No.)

Multiplicity of Citizen ID
Processes
 Electricity Bill, Water Bill, Telephone Bill, Bank Pass
Book, Insurance Policies, Credit/Debit Cards
 What for do we need Citizen ID Cards? Single or
Multiple? Use-specific or generic?
 U.K. has made it compulsory by Identity Card Act
2006. Collects 49 pieces of information
 In the U.S., it is controversial subject. Only 17%
Americans are in favour of it (Garson 2006)
 Can we do it for government employees in the first
instance?
