Distribution of Haj 2013 application forms begins

Hyderabad, February 06:Minorities Welfare Minister Mohammed Ahmadullah on Wednesday launched the distribution of Haj Application Forms for the Haj 2013 at Haj House, Nampally.

Speaking on the occasion, Ahmadullah said that the State Government and the Andhra Pradesh State Haj Committee would provide all the facilities to the Haj pilgrims of the State. He said that this year the Haj Committee of India has made it mandatory for all the Muslims to perform Haj only once in a life time and as per that decision, the forms would be accepted from those persons who did not perform Haj earlier. The persons of 70 years and above besides the applicants who have been filing Haj applications for three years would be automatically selected for Haj 2013, he said.

Later, speaking to the media persons, the minister said that the new Haj House would be constructed soon near Shamsabad Airport for the smooth departure of Haji pilgrims. The Minister said that all the applicants should have a valid passport issued on or before 20th March 2013 which should be valid at least till 20-03-2013. The applicants under reserved categories should submit their original passports along with the application forms. This year the Ministry of External Affairs, government of India has directed to restrict the number of pilgrimages to a Haj applicant through Haj Committee of India to once in a life time as against the existing once in a five years.

This is a major change, he said, therefore all the applicants should submit an affidavit stating that they have not performed Haj earlier through the Haj Committee of India. Only two categories i.e. Green and Azeezia will be available to the pilgrims, the Minister said.

Haj Committee Chairman Syed Khaleeluddin Ahmed presided over the meeting and said that the Haj Application Forms will be available free of cost between 10 AM and 3 PM on all working days and could be submitted on or before 20th March. He said that necessary arrangements have been made for distribution of Haj Forms in all the districts through various District Haj Societies. The filled in applications along with all necessary documents such as copies of passports, address proof, an affidavit, SBI bank pay in slip of Rs 300 per pilgrim, and two photographs besides a cancelled blank cheque to ascertain IFS Code and MICR Code of the bank where the applicant has his account, should be submitted in the office of the AP State Haj Committee.

Get an Aadhaar card now. This is how

The queue of people waiting to lay their hands on the card seems to be getting longer and longer. Here's a ready reckoner on how to get the card:

NEW DELHI: With the government making Aadhaar Card (unique identification card) mandatory in procuring LPG connections, issuing passports, sale or purchase of houses, opening a PF account or withdrawing your provident fund, opening a bank account, etc, the queue of people waiting to lay their hands on the card seems to be getting longer and longer.

Here's a ready reckoner on how to get the card:

# Aadhaar card enrollment is free and you need to enroll only once as an individual is entitled for only one card.

# You can go to any authorized Aadhaar enrollment center anywhere in India with your identity and address proof.

# UIDAI process accepts Proof of Identity and 33 Proof of Address documents. Common proofs of identity and address are election photo ID card, Ration card, passport and driving license.

# Photo ID cards like PAN card and government ID cards are permissible for identity proof. Address proof documents also include water - electricity - telephone bills from the last three months.

# In case you do not have above mentioned proofs, certificate of identify having photo issued by Gazetted Officer/Tehsildar on letterhead is also accepted as proof of identity.

# Certificate of address having photo issued by MP or MLA /Gazetted Officer/Tehsildar on letterhead or by Village Panchayat head or its equivalent authority (for rural areas) is accepted as valid proof of address.

# If someone in your family does not have individual valid documents, the resident can still enrol if his/her name exists in family entitlement document.

# Where there are no documents available, residents may also take the help of 'Introducers' at the enrolment centre. The Introducers are notified by the registrar.

# At the enrollment center, your photo, finger-prints and iris scan will also be taken as a part of the enrollment.

# You need to enrol only once. Enrolling again is a waste of your time as you will get only one Aadhaar number.

# Based on the information provided, your details will be verified and If the application is successful, an Aadhaar number will be generated and mailed to your address.

# The waiting time for Aadhaar may vary from 60-90 days after receipt of resident data packets.

# Click here for the list of documents that can be submitted as proof of identity and address.

# After enrolment, quality checks are done by the enrolment centre supervisors, followed by correction process (where required) and data packet consolidation.

# Subsequently, the Enrolment Agency sends the data to UIDAI data centre. The data undergoes various stages of screening and validations in CIDR. This ensures that the source of data is authenticated besides ensuring that no duplicate exists.

# Sample quality checks are done on demographic and biometric data collected from residents.

# Apart from that the operator/supervisor/introducer/enrolment agency and registrar, information in each packet is also validated. Only after passing the data quality checks and other validations, the packet goes for de-duplication and Aadhaar gets generated.

# In case of any errors, the packet goes on hold. For example, if the particulars of the operator who enrolled the resident are found to be inconsistent with database or there is a mismatch observed in photo and age/gender (e.g. a child's photo with age mentioned as 50 years), then the packet is held for further enquiry.

# Corrective actions are taken on such packets, wherever possible, else a rejection letter guiding resident to re-enroll is dispatched to the resident.

# India Post is entrusted with the responsibility of printing and delivery of Aadhaar letters. Depending on backlog for generation, location of delivery etc.

# India Post may ordinarily take 3-5 weeks to print and deliver Aadhaar letters to the residents.

Benefits of an Aadhar card

# The unique identification or Aadhaar project would result in saving of about Rs 110,000 crore by 2020 (around 58 per cent of expenditure of major public welfare schemes), a Planning Commission study released said.

# By providing a clear proof of identity, Aadhaar will empower the underprivileged residents in accessing services such as the formal banking system and give them the opportunity to easily avail various other services provided by the government and the private sector.
