In order to make Aadhaar penetration a success in every district, Chief Secretary   of Jammu and Kashmir in a review meeting directed all district heads to take up this matter in a mission mode.

He enjoined upon the DCs to formulate re-deployment plan for optimum utilisation of Aadhaar stations in order to achieve the 100% penetration. “Mobilise people to Aadhaar stations through awareness campaigns, local representatives”, Dr. Mehta instructed the DCs.
