## Why Rethink Aadhaar?
<ul style="text-align:left; color:#ccc; line-height:2; font-size:1.05em;">
- **Mass Exclusions:** Millions denied rations, pensions & wages due to biometric failures
- **Surveillance State:** Centralized database enables mass tracking of every citizen
- **No Legal Safeguards:** Weak data protection, no meaningful consent mechanism
- **Mandatory Linkages:** Forced into banking, telecom, education — with no real choice
- **Corporate Profiteering:** Private companies profit from citizen data at public cost
