Q: If we don’t object to Census, why NPR is opposed?
A: In Census, when people give information, it goes into database, & remains anonymous.
So the information cannot be used against an individual.

Census v/s NPR
In NPR, exact details of everyone, including mobile no., add.,
Names of parents, PAN , DoB, driving licence, aadhaar biometrics seeded in it, remain in database in usable form.
This gives govt. agencies unprecedented powers to over lives of every individual.

In Aadhaar also similar details are there, but after judgement of constitutional bench of Supreme Court, aadhaar database is secured by privacy laws.
But NPR register will be published, details will be with Sub-district level govt. officers.

Census v/s NPR
The NPR database with all individual information, enough to trace & control them, is not covered by any privacy laws yet.
So this information is open to massive misuse by govt. & influential people.
Is Supreme Court comfortable with such loss of privacy?
