I appeared in the matter since about 2015. First the 9 judge bench reference. Then 5 judge main matter. Looking forward to Chandrachud's dissection of the law. There is supposed to be a split verdict. Misra creates a guessing game.
the government has been harrassing people specially poor people with the cover of aadhar by insisting for aadhar for ratioin card etc., tomorrow government will insist for biometric authentication for travelling, going to toilet etc., and harass more people in the name of aadhar.regards ramesh
Hope SC will take a balanced view. Aadhar may be made compulsory only if Govt. subsidy is required. It can't be made for public services like banking, passport, telephone. It will be taking away Human Rights if aadhar is made compulsory.

Where there is potential for Breach in National Security (SIMs) and finance (PAN, TAX evasion) involved, Aadhar shall me Must. FOr everything else it shall be optional. LIke PDS.
What is do not understand is, Aadhar is just a number and it is useless unless it is validated with BioMetric. So i do not understand all the issues.
For example, say if my Aadhaar, My Name and address are in public domain, no one can use it, until i go to a bank or mobile service provider and authenticate it with my Biometric and OATH token. This like a Two Factor authentication, that makes your assets more safer than before.
