No wonder he fainted !!!
Hillarious !!! if all of these start getting connected some day we are going to have the shock of our life !!!!
It's hilarious :)) LOL
But it is a good idea to do this in India, easier to track some crimes, though I hate the thought of such loss of privacy!!
@Hitchwriter thanks, Yes it will be a shock for all of us here, as all our health and wealth details are known.No body likes to know abt there bank details
@IHM Difficult to do in india because of the huge population and also our politicians wont agree for it .
Yeah, with Dubai, anything is possible... btw, did u get yours?
@Rakesh not yet, still time is there, maybe i will leave dxb before getting it done
