What's this about? Why is Modi asking these particular guys to leave their posts?

arp2041 regarding AADHAAR:
Watch: NDA Set To Eclipse UPA's Aadhaar Programme - NDTV
Seems the national identity card is a far more foolproof system than the AADHAAR card.
What astounded me was that 3/4 of the guests and even the chair (Vishnu Som) seemed to advocate India have an open door policy to the world's poor and couldn't seem to comprehend what was wrong with having illegal BD migrants in India!!
The show makes a pretty compelling case for scrapping AADHAAR and replacing it with the new national identity card, I had been worried when I head that AADHAAR was being scrapped but I am pretty relieved now. I hope Modi puts in place a very direct system for implementing it and it rolls out very soon- issuing it to over 1BN people is not going to be an easy task.
Buddy, either you have seen a complete different show, or you simply didn't get the points the people made!
A) AADHAAR card is a development programm, that is aimed to get benefits to the poor, while the new ID card has nothing to do with that aim at all! So comparing both makes no sense, since they have different goals. That's why AADHAAR card don't have the aim of implementing more security features, nor does it have any need to add all citizens of India, but is aimed on the resident Indians only.
B) That immigration to economic centers, be it cities like Mumbai or Delhi, countries like India, the US or even regions regions like the EU is a common problem all over the world, simply by the fact that people want to improve their life. And no matter how hard you try, you can't stop this immigration, if at all can slow it down to an extend.
Neither the US with the Mexicans, nor the EU with immigration from Africa and even India have found a solution for that problem.
C) That it is a risk for the common Indian when so many personal informations will be collected by the government, with no rules and regulations for what they will be used.
Most of all the whole point does not make any logical sense, simply because the figures doesn't add up! They want to get the infos of more than a BILLION Indians, to find a few million foreigners and then want to identify those that are illegal in India? That's an insane approach logistically alone, which not only will take years but also a huge ammount of money and for what?
Those who can't ID themselfs can't be thrown out of India like the BJP is advertising it, simply by the fact that you can't prove his origin. That's the first step ANY illegal immigrant does all over the world, to destroy his documents and anything that could identify him as an non resident. Just as no country in the world, will take large ammounts of people that are alleged to be citizens, without any prove. Not even India takes back Indians without documentations, or any proves that they are Indians.
So BJP is getting on the problem from the complete wrong side! Instead of using the money to improve the security at the borders and prevent more illegal immigrantion and to get Bangladesh to work WITH India on identifying people that were caught without documents...
...they are getting personal infos on "INDIANS", which can be misused
....don't get any clue of the origin of the people without documents (which easily can be Indians as well)
...and most of all, doesn't reduce the illegal immigrantion in any way!!!
