Aadhaar Card Project Helped Government Save Rs 50,000 Crore, Says UIDAI
Ahead of the next hearing of the Aadhaar card case in the Supreme court on Tuesday, the Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI) - which issues the 12-digit UID number - said that the Aadhaar card project has saved Rs 57,000 crore of the country. The UIDAI made this comment on its official Twitter handle @UIDAI. Last week, the top court had said that for now, the citizens do not have to link their Aadhaar card numbers with their bank accounts, phone numbers and passports by the earlier March 31 deadline. In effect, the March 31 deadline has been extended indefinitely because the Supreme Court had said that it was yet to decide whether the linking of the 12-digit biometric number with private and public services is a violation of the right to privacy.
