BANGALORE: Over 600 million people, about half of the country's 1.2 billion population, will get their unique identification (UID) numbers by the end of 2014.
The rollout of the 16-digit UID number will commence in 12 to 18 months. The second half of the work is likely to take more time to complete as coverage will be slow in remote areas where people don't even have a basic identity.
