No More Need of AADHAAR Number, Thanks To Virtual Identification (VID) Which enhance AADHAAR security. ( indian report)

From the July 1st 2018 Virtual Identification (VID) system is in operation: UIDAI

Virtual ID is a 16 digit number which is now used in place of AADHAR 12 digit number. This is more secure than aadhar number, because Aadhar carries all our information like bank details, phone number etc but VID carries only name, address and gender.
It is a parallel number to aadhar which can be generated and regenerated anytime and anywhere within 10 sec from UIDAI Website “uidai.gov.in”.

NEED OF VID

When the Aadhar officially declared compulsory for every services, its security for personal data always questioned.
To make it full proof there are so many steps taken by government, but they all are not enough.
In this way a new step is VID.
In case of Aadhar number, there is an ecosystem of many services like bank, phone number etc are created around it. Due to which it is risky to share Aadhar number and details with telecom companies and other service providers.
But VID is safe to share with these service providers because it carries only name, address and gender. And the best thing in this, is that you can change it any time from UIDAI website (uidai.gov.in).

HOW TO GENERATE VID

Open “uidai.gov.in” website.
Click on “Virtual ID (VID) Generation”.
Enter your 12-digit Aadhar number and security code.

Press “send OTP”.

There will an OTP received on your mobile number, which is linked with your aadhar number.

"ENTER OTP”.
Click on “Generate VID”.

DEAD LINE

The initial dead line for service providers was 31 May, which UIDAI extended. Agencies have been given a grace period until 31 August 2018 to migrate to VID and VID token using software [Auth API 2.5 and e-KYC API 2.5] that support VID system.
However the telecom and e-sign companies which may not have implemented the VID system from 1st July shall be charged 0.20 rupee for every transaction. But all these fee will be waved off to companies if they full migrate to VID upto 31 July.

CLASSIFICATION OF AGENCIES/ COMPANIES

UIDAI categories telecom operators and e-sign providers as ‘local’ Authentication Agencies (AUAs). Local AUAs can use only VID for verification, while global AUAs can ask for the actual 12- digit Aadhar number. Banks fall in this category.

What is Nebula. Images of some nebula by Hubble

A nebula is a giant cloud of dust and gas in space. Some nebulae (more than one nebula) come from the gas and dust thrown out by the explosion of a dying star, such as a supernova. Other nebulae are regions where new stars are beginning to form. For this reason, some nebulae are called "star nurseries." How do stars form in a nebula? Nebulae are made of dust and gases—mostly hydrogen and helium. The dust and gases in a nebula are very spread out, but gravity can slowly begin to pull together clumps of dust and gas. As these clumps get bigger and bigger, their gravity gets stronger and stronger. Eventually, the clump of dust and gas gets so big that it collapses from its own gravity. The collapse causes the material at the center of the cloud to heat up-and this hot core is the beginning of a star. Some of the most amazing nebula pictured by Hubble in Milky Way Galaxy The Eagle Nebula’s Pillars of Creation (M 16, Messier 16) The dust and gas in the pi...

25 June 1975 BLACK DAY FOR INDIA (EMERGENCY)

25 June which is considered as black day for india. It was 25 June 1975 when Prime Minister Shri Indri Gandhi declared Emergency through radio in India.

Collision of galaxies, images taken by hubble

The interaction between galaxies is an on going process in universe. However the merging of big galaxies with each other on average once over the past 9 billion years. But Small galaxies were coalescing with large galaxies more frequently. In fact, our own Milky Way galaxy had several such mergers with small galaxies in its recent past. In the combination of galaxies there is no collision of stars with eath other, it is the dust and other material which collapse and billions of stars are born, mostly in groups and clusters of stars. Some of the images of colliding galaxies taken by hubble This is image of a pair of interacting galaxies called Arp 273. The distorted shape of the larger of the two galaxies shows signs of tidal interactions with the smaller of the two. It is thought that the smaller galaxy has actually passed through the larger one. This nearly 300 million light years away from earth. And a part of Constellation "Andromeda" Hubble has captured a...
