Remember the UIDAI’s announcement in November 2015 that it had appointed international audit and consultancy firm PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) to audit and review Aadhaar security? (1/6) economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/economy/p…

for running Aadhaar mirror databases at the state level (for example in Karnataka), (3/6)
