I AM 88 years old and fingerprints on my thumbs have vanished with the passage of time. My mobile phone SIMs could not be verified in the absence of fingerprints.

I do not wish to get the SIMs verified in somebody other’s name. Mobile network companies refuse to accommodate me. There are thousands of such senior citizens facing the same problem. Is there a way out?
