Id Card

The Multipurpose National Identity Card (MNIC) project is an initiative of the Indian government to create a national ID for every Indian citizen with the objective of increasing national security, managing citizen identity and facilitating e-governance.

The project was initiated under the Vajpayee, NDA government (circa 2002), which has since been continued by the present UPA government under Prime Minister Manmohan Singh. The project's importance was underscored by President Abdul Kalam in his 2006 Independence Day eve address to the natio.

Para 5.110 of the report of the GoM on Reforming the National Security System recommends:

“Illegal migration has assumed serious proportions.  There should be compulsory registration of citizens and non-citizens living in India.  This will facilitate preparation of a national register of citizens.  

All citizens should be given a Multi-purpose National Identity Card (MNIC) and non-citizens should be issued identity cards of a different colour and design.  This should be introduced initially in the border districts or may be in a 20 km border belt and extended to the hinterland progressively. The Central Government should meet the full cost of the identity card scheme.”
