The following is a presentation from one of the foremost proponents of Aadhar.An occasional good point here. An overriding sense of entitlement and belief that the author knows all and the best way forward and a frightening lack of empathy and disregard for what the rest of the world might feel or want.

My comments on this presentation follow below:
