For a migrant to Delhi, obtaining legal identity is a tough ask

Before I moved to Delhi, a friend told me, “You are moving to the city of migrants and djinns”. All this while I believed I am the migrant, now I am not sure.

I have been living in Delhi for over five years. I built a career here, made some of my best friends here and I love this city in a way in which I don’t love my hometown. But can I prove I live here? No, I cannot. For nearly a year now, I am caught in a circular process to procure a proof of residence in this city. But for all the talk of uniting the country so that people can settle anywhere they want, our system is still tuned to exclude, not include.

I have linked my phone number to my PAN, my PAN to Aadhaar and my Aadhaar to my bank account. Every time I link two “identities”, something else pops up. Every day, I, the citizen, am trusted less. But I, on the other hand, am expected to trust the government without doubt, without questions.
