Is Nandan Nilekani a flight risk? https://indianlibertyreport.com/is-nandan-nilekani-a-flight-risk/">https://indianlibertyreport.com/is-nandan...
Certain elements of the Indian State have already assessed Mr. Nilekani’s exposure to pressure from foreign three letter agencies. As we cannot verify this information of date, we are not going into the details. 1/n
Mr. Nilekani was part of a group actively pushing for demonetisation. This was beyond mere suggestion and likely falls into the category of illegal lobbying. https://www.sundayguardianlive.com/opinion/demonetisation-suggested-bill-nandan">https://www.sundayguardianlive.com/opinion/d...
After being part of every committee or group making Aadhar mandatory while serving as chief of UIDAI, Mr. Nilekani then resumed his role as director of Infosys, the company awarded with several contracts implementing the program. https://www.moneylife.in/article/aadhaar-is-infosys-founder-nilekanis-conflict-of-interest-making-lives-difficult-for-bank-customers-through-finacle/54408.html">https://www.moneylife.in/article/a...
The RBI later named Mr. Nilekani as Chairman of a High-Level Committee on Deepening of Digital Payments. This is a clear conflict, as this article points out. https://qz.com/india/1517823/nilekanis-ispirt-shadow-on-indias-rbi-digital-payments-panel/">https://qz.com/india/151...
Mr. Nilekani has used his “good offices” to influence appointments at the NPCI, which he “shadow runs”, as this article shows: https://caravanmagazine.in/reportage/aadhaar-mixing-public-risk-private-profit">https://caravanmagazine.in/reportage...
Mr. Nilekani, who was Chairman of UIDAI till 13 March 2014, had joined the Congress on 9 March 2014. He sent his resignation on 13 March 2014 to the then Prime Minister Dr Manmohan Singh, which was accepted on 18 March 2014 with retrospective effect. https://www.moneylife.in/article/will-nandan-nilekani-be-held-accountable-for-violating-service-conduct-rules-and-citizens-rights-part-35/38054.html">https://www.moneylife.in/article/w...
Mr. Nilekani, then CEO of the UIDAI was sending out personalised letters to the heads of every household within the constituency as LS candidate. It turns out that the letters looked “nearly the same as those that were used to send out Aadhaar numbers”. https://www.business-standard.com/article/opinion/canvassing-the-base-114030900556_1.html">https://www.business-standard.com/article/o...
Mr. Nilekani appears to be on the board of a certain “Indian Institute of Human Settlements”. This NGO is registered under the FCRA with the 231661405. It seems to have received Rs. 17 crore in “foreign aid” in 2015-16.

Donors to the NGO include the who’s who of global criminals and foreign intelligence: the Omidyar Network, the Gates Foundation, and the International Development Research Centre which is directly operated by the government of Canada.
Mr. Nilekani, heading the Technology Advisory Group for Unique Projects (TAGUP), recommended the recommended setting up the GST Network as a private IT company, to take away the sovereign function of tax collection from the government. https://www.moneylife.in/article/is-nandan-nilekani-acting-as-an-agent-of-non-state-actors-part-xi/35304.html">https://www.moneylife.in/article/i...
As we can see, just a sampling of the various information available in the public domain shows that a detailed investigation into Mr. Nilekani’s misadventures will bear “lots of fruit”.
Of course we don’t expect the government to take any action on this, but any party looking at the Aadhar endgame would do well to keep a watch on Mr. Nilekani’s movements.
The Indian Liberty Report welcomes any information leading to the eventual prosecution and conviction of Mr. Nilekani. Depending upon the quality and credibility of the information, the ILR may give the informer a suitable bounty.
