India, once a socialist worker "paradise", had, in recent years, embraced free market capitalism. The result was increased prosperity, more jobs, a growing middle-class, a technological revolution, and more social and economic freedoms. The direction in which the nation was heading would have seen an end to the massive rural poverty that has plauged India since their peaceful secession from British rule.
However, the people of India are now accepting a leap into Fascism by issuing national ID cards (which many politicians advocate for this country). It's amazing how the Government will take situations (like opening a bank account) that worked perfectly well in the past, and deem it absolutely necessary for them to get involved. The result will be an invasion of personal privacy on a grand scale.
Let's hope we don't follow India's example in this area of affairs.
