THE mobile phone networks are refusing to register SIMs of aged people on the ground that their fingerprints have disappeared owing to aging. I am 90 year old and will be deprived of cellphone facility. There must be a large number of old people who will suffer this treatment. The authorities concerned must devise some method to verify the SIMs held by aged people.
