 "Aadhaar, Biometrics Aadhaar")
The Delhi High Court on Monday sought the response of the UIDAI and the Centre on a plea raising concerns about Aadhaar data security and privacy of individuals, in the wake of several reported leaks of personal information of people from the Unique Identification Authority of India's (UIDAI) database.
A bench of justices S Ravindra Bhat and Anu Malhotra issued notice and sought reply from authorities on the plea, which also urged the court to direct the Centre to either allow people to opt out of the system or delete the entire existing UIDAI data, in view of the security breaches.
