biggest problem we have is our own people, who take bribe and issue ration card, aadhar card etc., Once an illegal person has got aadhar card, how can we throw him / her out of the country. Using aadhar card, these illegal culprits enjoy all the benefits including free rice, etc etc and then work against india. Using aadhar card, apply for Indian passport and do all anti india activities. If police arrest and file case, then so called rights group will fight for these illegal culprits. So problem starts from border where our own security force people ( not all but few) accept bribe and allow them to enter. Then comes the ration card issuer, Aadhar card issuer etc., To conclude it would be next to impossible to send these illegal culprits back. They are already more than 50 million in all over india.
