What happened

Digital India has reached a level of connectivity that defies logic. The latest CAG audit flagged a 'structural flaw' where one crore candidates under a government welfare scheme were registered using the exact same mobile number and email address. While the government claims this eliminated middlemen, critics suggest it has merely created a 'Super Beneficiary' who is apparently the most skilled and well-funded person in human history. The digital architecture meant to ensure transparency has instead created a hive-mind of identity data, where millions of people are technically the same person in the eyes of the server.
