Mizoram Christians afraid of Unique IDs – UID feature akin to Bible’s Devil/Beast identity

There are people in India who still believe in superstitious ideas. In fact, Mizoram people are a step ahead, refusing to get enrolled under the nation’s prestigeous Unique ID project. And, the reason being pure superstitious.

Around 3000 people of eight districts in Mizoram, who are mostly Christians could not be enrolled during the ongoing census 2010 process. These people refused to go under the national population registry unanimously and are ready to face the law and punishment for their actions.

When enquired, these people did not oppose to be counted for census, but refused to be “marked” with the Unique ID. Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI) lays down several conditions and one being …

no one can buy or sell property without the Unique ID — UIDAI

According to Mizoram people, marking with an Unique ID is akin to Bible’s Beast or Devil identity. The fear of being identified with the ‘number of the beast’ roots from the Bible’s Revelation chapter 13 Verse 17 which says …

…and that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark or the name of the beast or the number of his name.  –  Bible

Mizoram Christians afraid of Unique IDs - UID feature akin to Bible's Devil/Beast identity

Well, I broke into laughter after hearing the reason for Mizoram people refusing to get marked with Unique IDs. If they were to go with Bible, why do they have any sort of unique ids with them – like mobile numbers ?. These people are pure superstitious! Isn’t it ?

    sorry, if I have insulted your religious beliefs and no intentions of that sort. just couldn’t digest the practice of superstitious ideas in the name of GOD and it exists in all religions.

    the author should have been sensible toward the mizo’s beliefs. there are many many things in hindu beliefs which are considered STUPID still they ardently follow it…. so, kindly mind your language, and if you can’t, you better not write any thing that may offend a community.
