Referring to the slow pace of work on the phase II of the Aadhar Yojna, which commenced on May 1, officials from the state government shot off a letter to the District Collector on September 6 asking him to appoint non-registered agencies to speed up the process.

The delay was attributed to the low number of machines provided by three agencies — Glodyne Technoserve Limited, Techsmart India Private Limited and Karvy Data Management — for completion of the process.
