TRAI mulls Aadhaar proof for mobile connection
Indian telecom sector regulator TRAI has recommended the use of electronic Know Your Customer (KYC) of Aadhaar as a valid document for getting a new mobile connection. The recommendations were sent to the Department of Telecom (DoT) 15 days ago. If the government finalises the norms, it would speed up the verification process for new connections using Aadhaar biometrics data.
