Dear Mr. Rajan,
The challenge to the Aadhar Card before the Supreme Court on the ground that since the Govt. is collecting the demographic and biometric data of the residents of this country, it is invading the 'privacy' of the citizens and consequently violates the fundamental right. While referring the main issue to a larger bench, the Supreme Court has held as under:
Having considered the matter, we are of the view that the balance of interest would be best served, till the matter is finally decided by a larger Bench if the Union of India or the UIDA proceed in the following manner:-
1. The Union of India shall give wide publicity in the electronic and print media including radio and television networks that it is not mandatory for a citizen to obtain an Aadhaar card;
2. The production of an Aadhaar card will not be condition for obtaining any benefits otherwise due to a citizen;
3. The Unique Identification Number or the Aadhaar card will not be used by the respondents for any purpose other than the PDS Scheme and in particular for the purpose of distribution of foodgrains, etc. and cooking fuel, such as kerosene. The Aadhaar card may also be used for the purpose of the LPG Distribution Scheme;
4. The information about an individual obtained by the Unique Identification Authority of India while issuing an Aadhaar card shall not be used for any other purpose, save as above, except as may be directed by a Court for the purpose of criminal investigation.
In paragraph 3 above it says that the Govt. can use the Aadhar Card/Unique Identification No. for the purpose of PDS, Kerosine and LPG Distribution.
From the above, better draw your own conclusions.
