National GOVERNMENT POLICIES & SCHEMES 01 Mar IRCTC launches payment aggregator,, IRCTC iPay Passengers will no longer need any third-partty platforms to pay for their tickets. Under this new arrangement, IRCTC will have full control of the payment system because of its direct relationship with acquiring banks, card networks and other partners. P O INTS TO NO TE The exclusive digital payment gateway will provide an improved online digital payment convenience and ease of doing business to passengers availing online travel related services through the IRCTC website. This will help reduce the gap between IRCTC and banks which will eventually lead to substantial reduction in payment failures. Moreover, in case an online transaction is unsuccessful or some other error occurs, IRCTC can directly get in touch with the bank instead of relying on an intermediate source which usually delays the process. 01 Mar Cabinet approves Aadhaar Ordinance to allow its use as ID proof for bank account Aadhaar can be used as KYC (Know your customer) on a voluntary basis under the Telegraph Act and PMLA rules. P O INTS TO NO TE The Ordinance was necessitated as a bill, passed by the Lol Sabha on Jan 4 but pending in the Rajya sabha, would have lapsed with the dissolution of the current Lok Sabha. The Ordinance will now give the effect to the changes in the Aadhaar Act such as giving a child an option to exit from the biometric ID programme on attaining 18 years of age. The amendment provides for stiff penalties for violation of norms set for the use of Aadhaar and violation of privacy. It bans storing of core biometric information as well as Aadhaar number by service providers in cases of individuals who have voluntarily offered the national ID as a means of authentication.
