- The Indian government has integrated the National Intelligence Grid (NATGRID) with the National Population Register (NPR).
- This integration allows real-time access to verified demographic and family-linked data.
- NATGRID was created after the 26/11 Mumbai terror attacks (2008) to improve intelligence coordination.
- It operates under the Ministry of Home Affairs and consolidates over 20 categories of civil and commercial databases.
- Gandiva, NATGRID’s analytics tool, performs the facial recognition and links disparate data points to identify suspects.
- The integration enhances counter-terrorism efforts and accelerates criminal investigations across India.
