By the way, the sleep of the Ministry of Labor has never been opened. There was atrocities on the employees. Injustice was being done to them. The ministry always slept. Even if he won any victory in favor of the employees, by then either he had retired or he died. But he was always ahead in the detriment of the employees or their insecurities. A new information has come out on Saturday, according to which the data of about 28 crore members of EPFO ​​has been leaked.

Although the total number including the current EPFO ​​members and pensioners is only about 1.25 crore, but if their nominees are added, then the number becomes double. Apart from this, about one million members are newly added every month. However, many members also leave.

A researcher from Ukraine has made public about the leak of this data. It may be just a rumor and the data is not really leaked, but there is a danger. The Ministry of Labor is neither able to confirm nor deny it. In this data of EPFO, bank account numbers of all employees, account numbers of their nominees, along with other personal information are also there.

However, the researcher says that the data has been removed from the public link as soon as the information is revealed, but if it is with anyone then it can be used by them. Will do Till 2021, a total of Rs 11 lakh crore was deposited in the accounts of EPFO ​​members. Now, that is, after one and a half years of 2021, this figure would have become even bigger.

After the data leak like this, the concern has increased that it has become so easy to transfer money in our country that it is not so easy in this matter in any other country. Not even in developed countries, because those countries consider the safety of people and their personal information as paramount. In our place, after demonetisation, online transfer has been so much publicized, circulated that there was a competition among the people. People are transferring money regardless of security.

Whether it is a money transfer of ten rupees on a hand cart or two lakh rupees at a showroom, people are worried about transferring. No one is worried about how their data would have been safe. After all, how can anyone keep all this data safe? The government is not able to handle its own data, how will it be able to handle the data of about 100 crore people out of 140 crore?

However, the greatest safety lies in caution. Whether it is a matter of transferring money or personal information or location, if we are not careful then no one can stop the data from leaking. You have to protect yourself. Sitting on the trust of any ministry, any state or central government, nothing is going to happen now.
