Banerjee, in a post on her Twitter handle said, "Linking of #Aadhaar is very problematic. In the name of #AadhaarCard, details have been put on 210 government websites. This is dangerous for individual liberty, the society and the country."
"All the skeletons are being exposed. Some people feel happy even after doing wrong things," the chief minister said continuing her tirade against the BJP government at the Centre on the Aadhaar issue.
Banerjee had yesterday told reporters at the state secretariat, "We already have the PAN card, voter ID card. But I believe what is taking place in the name of Aadhaar card -- that will be dangerous for any individual and society."
"Details from head to toe of every individual, talks between mother and daughter... husband and wife would be known. I have been warning (people) about this time and again," she had said.
More than 200 central and state government websites publicly displayed details such as names and addresses of some Aadhaar beneficiaries and Banerjee had denounced the central government over the leak, the Unique Identification Authority of India said recently.
